Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, sede Pasto
This research presents the results from a diagnosis of institutional hygiene, health, safety and environmental conditions at the Luis Delfín Insuasty Rodríguez (inem) and Instituto Técnico Superior Industrial Municipal (itsim) educational institutions in 2012; risk factors associated with the above-mentioned conditions were identified, along with activities for prevention and promotion that must be undertaken to minimize possible impacts from the identified risks among the population at the educational institutions, taking into account currently-in-effect occupational health regulations in the country. The results were obtained after carrying out a survey, semi-structured interviews and risk factor assessments at each institution, pursuant to currently-in-effect Colombian standard gtc 45 for such risk factor assessments.
