- Occupational health resource classification instrument (OHRCI) in the oil industry, BrazilPublication . Albuquerque, Rafael Amaral; Carvalho, Marcelo Barbosa; Dinis, Maria Alzira Pimenta; Viterbo, Lilian Monteiro FerrariThe study describes the development of the Occupational Health Resource Classification Instrument (OHRCI) aiming to classify the levels of occupational health care in the oil industry, Brazil, considering the aspects of prevention and health promotion.OHRCI was developed by 6 recognized experts in occupational health management with at least 10 years of experience. For content validation, the Delphi Technique was used, with 20 specialists from the fields of medicine, dentistry, social work, nutrition and psychology participating in 40 meetings with an average duration of 2 hours each. All proposed adjustment recommendations were incorporated and accepted.OHCRI tool was structured. It considers the characteristics of the oil companies regarding the assessment of risk scenarios, location and exposed population, resulting in a score between 1 and 16. Nine levels of occupational health care were defined, which allows to objectively consider the dimension of the workforce and attendance modality. The results of OHCRI tool allow specific strategic actions in people management, related to the monitoring of work processes and adaptation of professional skills.The proposed tool is considered validated and its application generates business value, ensuring the maintenance of resources for comprehensive health care and attendance level adequate to the needs of the oil industry and workers and associated compliance aspects.
- Person-centred care-based crisis management: facing COVID-19 in an oil industryPublication . Rodrigues, Mariana Costa; da Silva, Vanessa Uchoa de Assis Martins; Albuquerque, Rafael Amaral; Dinis, Maria Alzira Pimenta; Viterbo, Lilian Monteiro FerrariThe study aims to present the strategies used in person-centred care, through measures to promote and prevent COVID-19 pandemic in an oil industry in Brazil. The corporate focus is on managing the crisis, converging economic interests, operational security, health and protection of individuals.In March 2020, a ‘Crisis Room’ was structured, based on the Incident Command System (ICS) methodology for managing interventions in the company, covering about 160 000 workers and 1000 health professionals, including physicians, nurses, psychologists, social workers and nutritionists. The main strategies were: production of technical notes on COVID 19, development of software for monitoring cases, call-centre through a specialized centre with medical and psychological support, test implementation, implementation of sanitary barriers with temperature verification and filling of forms, as well as systematic technical forums.In the period of 1 year, 46 technical notes were produced, 61 388 cases were recorded and monitored, 30 373 gold standard tests (RT PCR), 484 686 rapid tests, 25 217 workers approached at health barriers and an average of 350 systematic technical forums, were carried out.Attention to the presented scenario and the mapping of the particularities in the emergency response are fundamental for decision-making, which can be impacted by the absence of strategies still in the reactive phase of the emergency. Despite the adoption of the ICS methodology in the management of the COVID-19 crisis, the incorporation of instruments aimed at individual-centred care were key strategies and foundations that have guaranteed work safety and the maintenance of productivity in this oil company within pandemic context.
