GONZALEZ GOMEZ, Mª Fernanda. Occupational health and gender: Notes to incorporate the gender mainstreaming in the occupational risks prevention field. Med. segur. trab. [online]. 2011, vol.57, suppl.1, pp.89-114. ISSN 1989-7790. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0465-546X2011000500007.
At national and international level, there is a wide legal frame enlacing public and private entities´ actions with the equal opportunities for men and women; nevertheless, the conditions in which they work are extremely different. In the occupational health context, like in others, the entities´ incapacity to know the real situation of men and women and the impossibility, as a result, to develop actions to improve accurately men and women´s health, are summed to the actual inequity. The gender mainstreaming in the occupational risks prevention world contribute to detect and correct the gender slant in the preventive activities and in the health surveillance. This paper aims to provide some simple tools to facilitate the incorporation of gender perspective in the activities developed by the Occupational Health Services.
