ABSTRACT

An exploratory and descriptive study of instrumental development was conducted to overcome the shortage of tools and modern, updated and generalizable methods for evaluating the health and safety of the company, and in order to build and validate a Cuban version of the Franco’s Questionnaire for verification, diagnosis and monitoring of occupational health in the enterprise, modified according to the socio-cultural, structural, organizational and functional conditions of the entities located in the country in order to contribute to the comprehensive assessment of the conditions of health and safety in the Cuban entity. A preliminary version of the questionnaire was developed, based on the experiences of implementing the original instrument, for which we proceeded to the cross and syntactic adaptation terms, eliminating duplication and not applicable and / or necessary aspects, which was submitted to Moriyama expert criteria and the proposed changes a second, which was applied to the same companies to compare the results was created, which was the pilot study and allowed to make appropriate adjustments and the final version, which was applied in eight entities from different occupational sectors. The results of the pilot study and a comparison with the original version did not produce significant changes in the diagnosis of occupational health institutions, but as to the existence of duplications in the items and quantities of them which were not applicable. The new version also proved easy to use and qualification in all cases and there were no difficulties in the interpretation of its terms and results. It is recommended to continue the application of the instrument for studies of occupational health in companies in other occupational sectors and as an essential part of comprehensive models of work analysis.
