There is no relationship between the customer service activities and the risk of suffering burnout. There is a correlation between age, having dependent people or children, having other jobs simultaneously and the risk of suffering from Burnout. It is recommended to follow up the cases that present high risk in all three dimensions through an epidemiological surveillance system for psychosocial risk with periodic screenings and provide activities that could reduce emotional exhaustion.Item Condiciones de salud auditiva en la población de la Escuela Militar de Aviación (EMAVI), Cali – Colombia, para los años 2017 – 2019(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2020) López Sierra, Alejandra; Rojas Osorio, Raúl Fernando; Castro Aranda, Álvaro EstebanHearing health conditions in the population of the Military Aviation School (EMAVI), Cali – Colombia, for the years 2017 – 2019.

The following written work is based on the identification of occupational risks that commonly occurs, taking as a starting point the conditions in which workers performs their functions and work activities. These skeletal muscle traumas are a manifestation of work absenteeism in the companies which are the main root causes of physical effects (bodily effects) affecting the functionality, productivity and quality of life of workers. The study developed for this purpose was descriptive where were taken into account ergonomic elements of the bodily static and dynamic posture and organizational factors of the workstations in the workplace , this study was established on workers pain symptoms diagnosed. In this research was applied GTC 45 methodology, it is a guide called GUÍA DE ATENCIÓN EN SEGURIDAD Y SALUD EN EL TRABAJO and the regulation GATISO 2015 was employed to executed preventions and risk management. According to the report about workers health conditions made by the company TIAM, based on the fact that workers are exposed to repetitive movements of the upper limbs and to remain in poor body postures specially in seated and standing positions for an extended period of time, in this study the statistics were analyzed and it could be concluded that the level of risk which workers are exposed is medium according to the result of the 32,7 %, adding , the previous figure does not exceed hands pain statistics specifically carpal tunnel syndrome in comparison with other symptoms in different body areas. Finally, in the statistical results of this study it was established the most recurrent pain of skeletal muscle areas is located in hands as reported by 47%, follow, lower limbs area reveals 38% , then lower back area 37 %, nevertheless the findings in this research strongly suggest that a higher frequency of pain is located in body areas with the highest postural requirements and muscle activity, these results must be examine in detail to determine in what way the risk factors by physical stress and other organizational and workplace aspects may be causing pain to the workers.Item Enfermedades Infectocontagiosas de Origen Laboral(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2019) Calderón Durán, Estefanía; Florián Arroyo, Keila; Castro Aranda, Álvaro EstebanIn the health sector, biological risk is the most common, with the most exposed being the staff that provides direct assistance to the sick, the laboratory staff that processes contaminated or possibly contaminated samples. Within all the groups that make up the health sector, this work addresses, exclusively, the possible biological risks and infectious diseases to which the personnel interacting with patients can be exposed. Among the occupational hazards suffered by these personnel, one of the most worrying is the exposure to diseases of serum transmission due to accidental punctures with sharp objects, due to the severity of the consequences and the frequency with which they occur. Exposures of health personnel to diseases such as hepatitis C, the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), with the risk of contracting AIDS, with the hepatitis B virus. It is important to provide protection to workers against risks related to exposure to biological agents during work, which requires the evaluation of biological risks in the workplace. Thus, and bearing in mind that it is the Health Entities that are responsible for adopting measures to control this situation. Therefore, we must bear in mind that the prevention of occupational hazards must be integrated between the objectives of the entities, and all the professionals of the organizations have to assume the specific obligations in the matter in the daily development of their work. It is necessary to implement preventive measures in the workplace, seeking the establishment of safe work practices, promotion of health and safety of workers, in the same way, strategies to motivate workers for behavioral changes.

At the time of the action, 60% of the workforce needs immediate action and 40% needs action as soon as posible and The average estimated weight was 10.3 kg, It was concluded that eight out of ten workers have a moderate level of risk and one in five have a limited risk of presenting low back pain due to manual handling of loads and six out of ten workers have a very high level of risk and four out of ten a high risk.Item Condiciones ambientales de temperatura extrema y vibración asociado a hombro doloroso por origen laboral(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2019) Manyoma Delgado, Leydi Tatiana; Martínez Arango, Diego Fernando; Castro Aranda, Álvaro EstebanThis research work is located within the framework of Western medicine, called "Painful Shoulder due to Temperature and Vibration Factors". Its objective is to issue evidence-based recommendations for comprehensive management (promotion, prevention, early detection, treatment and rehabilitation). ) Of PAINFUL SHOULDER related to temperature and vibration risk factors in the work environment.This work focused on research carried out by different authors; although in the course of the same one it is possible to demonstrate that it is a relatively New subject of concepts, since many authors have spoken about Dolorosa Shoulder, but not properly assosado to the temperature and the vibrations; so it became a investigative and experiential challenge for us; generating greater impact and development.Item Modelo de una matriz de gestion del cambio en seguridad y salud en el trabajo para empresas de la ciudad de cali en el año 2018(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2018) Cruz Larrota, Sheyla Johanna; Erazo López, Diana Carolina; Bedoya Gutierrez, Maria TeresaAt present, there are new challenges in the face of constant changes in the environment and the market of companies that significantly undermine the welfare of these organizations; the difficulty lies fundamentally in retaining human talent, the attempt to break the domination of monopolies and the new competitors that enter the market daily; These are just some of the disadvantages that organizations must face if they want to be sustainable and maintain themselves over time. However, many companies have established change management, however as there are success there are also failures in the face of changes. Even so, incidents and quasi-accidents attributable to inadequate change management systems, or subtle changes of sources, machinery, equipment and infrastructure not previously recognized as, for example, organizational changes, continue to occur and many accidents occur due to not managing these. In the following project the components of the proposed matrix will be presented in relation to the management of the internal and external changes of the organizations as a warning system inherent to the risks and dangers in Health and Safety at Work (SST), responding to the requirements of the decree 1072 of 2015 Unified work regulations, Chapter II, Occupational Health and Safety System with the purpose of unifying common criteria and / or requirements regarding the management of change.
