Zusammenfassung: | The improvement of intervention practices is today an undeniable issue in the field of work-related musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) prevention. The development of knowledge about workplace interventions is therefore a research issue, which deals with the theme of intervention evaluation. International research in the MSD field focuses its work and recommendations mainly on the evaluation of the effects of interventions through the evolution in the state of the symptoms of the workers involved and/or the evolution in the exposures. In this article, we show first that this orientation assumes that a certain number of important conditions are associated, which are often difficult to associate and generally underestimated. We suggest that indicators relating to the work activity be considered, as well as employees’ margins of maneuver, as additional criteria in the evaluation, while emphasizing the necessity that work be carried out to make them operational. Second, we reiterate that the evaluation of the intervention’s effects is insufficient for developing knowledge about the intervention: this necessarily assumes the precise description of the intervention process and the consideration of its execution context. Finally, the discussion underlines the fact that, from our perspective, intervention evaluation is a project in itself, contributing directly to the transformation of the work.
Mejorar las prácticas de intervención constituye hoy en día un desafío en el campo de la prevención de lesiones músculo esqueléticas (LMS) relacionadas con el trabajo. El desarrollo de conocimientos sobre la intervención en las empresas es un desafío para la intervención dirigida a su evaluación. La investigación internacional en el campo de las LMS concentra sus trabajo y recomendaciones sobre la evaluación de los efectos de las intervenciones mediante la evaluación de los síntomas de salud o de las exposiciones. En este texto mostramos en primer lugar, que esta orientación supone que se reúnan un cierto número de condiciones importantes, generalmente subestimadas y a menudo difíciles de reunir. Proponemos que se tomen en cuenta, en tanto criterios complementarios de la evaluación, los indicadores relacionados a la actividad de trabajo y a los márgenes de maniobra, aunque señalamos que estos indicadores necesitan ser trabajados para volverlos operacionales. En segundo lugar, sostenemos que para desarrollar conocimientos sobre la intervención se necesita describir precisamente |
