| Sumario: |
Although statistics from various countries indicate a significant increase in cases of work-related mental disorders, the interventions that governments and international organizations propose are often limited to “psychosocial risk factors” and focused on stress prevention. Also, these interventions are uncritically conducted in relation to contemporary economic, political and social scenarios involving work relations. This article presents a more comprehensive proposal to deal with mental health problems caused and/or aggravated by work activity: the theoretical and methodological approach of ‘Work-related Mental Health’. Furthermore, the principles of ‘Workers’ Health field’, part of the Brazilian public health policy, are presented as guidance for conducting these interventions. |
