Scoping Review sobre o impacto das ações de promoção da saúde nos resultados das organizações

Abstract

Companies are looking for solutions to improve their productivity indicators and reduce costs. Investments in health promotion programs can be a way to achieve this goal. (DURSI, 2008) Analyzing health promotion practices and identifying the impact on reducing health care costs were the objectives of this work. The scope review (scoping review) made it possible to synthesize knowledge about health management made available in the databases (Pubmed, Google Scholar, Scielo, Ebsco, CAPES Journal Portal, CINAHL and Gray Literature). Of the 1507 articles retrieved, 85 articles were selected. It was confirmed that health promotion in the workplace has been a concern and is recognized as beneficial to workers' health and economic advantage. A flow for a health promotion program was proposed. Bibliographic analyzes indicated that the workplace is strategic for these programs. There is limited evidence that proves that health promotion programs generate improvements in cost indicators for corporate health care, which requires new and more in-depth studies.
