Abstract

The Situational Diagnosis conducted by teams of Primary Healthcare Units in the city of Felixlândia/MG showed deficiencies in Brazilian National Health System in health care workers, translated by marginalized, isolated and not legitimate as public policy practices. Thus, this study is aimed to supporting the organization of health care worker in the work processes of Primary Health teams in the city. For this purpose, a scientific and technical literature review was performed on "Occupational Health in Primary Care" as a theoretical and practice foundation to support the resolution of problems issues identified in Situational Diagnosis of Primary Health Unit. Using as databases the Latin American and Caribbean Center on Health Sciences and the Scientific Electronic Library Online, a survey was developed in the Virtual Health Library for the initial search of articles using the keywords: Occupational Health, Basic Attention, Primary Care and Family Health. Eleven studies were selected demonstrating that, in the searched databases, there is little published material on the subject. However, several strategies and actions have been found in studies and can and should be performed by the family health teams to transform the model of healthcare worker provided to the user. Finally, as a proposal, an initial work plan was systemized to be discussed with the health teams of Primary Health Care and may be useful to support the development of a municipal action plan in Occupational Health, with a view to the effective resolution of presented problems and the incorporation, in fact, of workers users care in the network of health services in the city.
