Bibliographic Details
Summary:Since the 18th century, the industrial phenomenon of technologies and machinery has provoked a combination of significant events at work, culminating in the establishment of laws and norms to grant rights and duties to the agents of the employment relationship. These measures activated the balance of work organization, including structures for the control and prevention of accidents compatible with the transformations of the phenomenon. In this context, this research aims to analyze the legal norms of the promotion of SST in Portugal and Brazil, verifying its willingness and implications for the admission of engineers interested in professional mobility under the Treaty of Friendship between these countries. Assuming that the laws are not the same, among other issues raised in relation to the exercise of the profession in the two countries, it is supposed that the rules governing the SST do not align and that this misalignment creates professional difficulties. Methodologically, this is a bibliographic and documentary research, of qualitativedescriptive character. The exhaustive review of the literature involved the Legislation and Standardization of SST Engineering, seeking to establish a comparative and critical analysis of legislation and other official documents from Portugal and Brazil. Thus, the research was legitimized through several observations and comparisons revealed in the studies. Among the revelations obtained, the following stand out: the diplomas and norms that legally promote SST in Portugal and Brazil are not grouped for research; the procedures for the control and prevention of occupational accidents are summarized in the classification of work activity and in the responsibilities and risk assessments; the content summarising the Functional Role of the OIT for promoting SST in these two countries also defines the organisation of decent and sustainable work; it is likely that the legal framework of occupational risks in Portugal and Brazil will also operate for the same purposes. Thus, it can be concluded that the Organization of SSTs Standards of Portugal and Brazil, within the Framework of the Friendship Treaty, can contribute to the exercise of the profession of occupational safety engineers.
