| dc.description | Esta revisión de alcance, realizada bajo las directrices Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) y PRISMA-ScR, analizó 40 estudios para examinar los impactos del cambio climático en la Seguridad y Salud en el Trabajo (SST) en Colombia y Latinoamérica de 2020 a 2026. Los hallazgos demostraron que el estrés térmico, la contaminación del aire y las enfermedades vectoriales aumentan significativamente los accidentes y enfermedades laborales, particularmente en la agricultura y construcción. La discusión resaltó que el cambio climático es un riesgo activo y presente que supera la prevención tradicional. Se concluyó que los sistemas de gestión de SST deben integrar urgentemente la adaptación climática y políticas regionales para proteger a la población trabajadora. | |
| dc.description.abstract | This scoping review, conducted in accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) and PRISMA-ScR guidelines, analyzed 40 studies to examine the impacts of climate change on Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) in Colombia and Latin America from 2020 to 2026. The findings demonstrated that heat stress, air pollution, and vector-borne diseases significantly increase workplace accidents and illnesses, particularly in agriculture and construction. The discussion highlighted that climate change is an active and present risk that goes beyond traditional prevention measures. It was concluded that OSH management systems must urgently integrate climate adaptation and regional policies to protect the working population. | |
