VERGARA, Aura C.; VALENCIA, Diana P.; GONZALEZ-GUTIERREZ, Jose S. e LOPEZ-LAVERDE, Jessica. Healthy work environment in Asia and North America scope review. Rev. salud pública [online]. 2022, vol.24, n.2, pp.1-. Epub 20-Jun-2023. ISSN 0124-0064. https://doi.org/10.15446/rsap.v24n2.97150.
Objectives
Conduct a scope review on Healthy Working Environment (ELS, by its initials in Spanish) in Asian and North American countries.
Methods
Review of documents of various methodological designs resulting from the PRISMA matrix obtained in databases such as Scopus, PubMed, Virtual Health Library (VHL) and other search engines from the years 2015 to 2020 using the following descriptors: Healthy, Workplace, Enviroment Work and the connectors AND and OR.
Results
A total of 36 final documents were obtained. 66.7% of the studies found were in North American countries. 44.4% of publications were made between 2019 and 2020. It was found that the database that yielded the most publications about ELS was Scopus and the magazine that published the most was VHL; also, the most relevant issues to achieve ELS were the promotion of health in the workplace through the intervention of strategies aimed at healthy lifestyles, and the impact of productivity.
Conclusions
ELS strategies allow health promotion programs to be implemented in companies in order to improve the lifestyles and working conditions of workers, encou-raging physical activity, balanced eating, and reducing alcohol intake and smoking. The ELS are related to the continuous improvement because it favors the increase of productivity and therefore it is important that they can be implemented in the context of education, business, trade, and economic development.
