PARRA OSORIO, Liliana et al. Hermeneutical understanding of the Act 1562 and the concept of occupational health. Rev. repub. [online]. 2018, n.24, pp.21-40. ISSN 1909-4450.  https://doi.org/10.21017/rev.repub.2018.v24.a38.

In 2012, through Raw 1562 it was established that "occupational health" would be understood as "Safety and Health at Work", instrumentally confusing the discipline of occupational health with one of its objects of study: health and Safety at work causing an obstacle to scientific knowledge. In view of this situation, a hermeneutic synderesis (synteresis) analysis/contrast exercise was carried out using a pattern of analysis based on Western original or facsimile texts and historical reference texts that allowed the examination of occupational health as a labor medicine; as occupational hygiene; as industrial safety (anticipation) and as an audit. The result: Raw 1562 responds to the strategy of Health and Safety in Rabor, but is weak in occupational medicine, hygiene and industrial safety.

Keywords : Health and safety at work; occupational medicine; hygiene; industrial safety; occupational health.
