INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY IN OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH: A LITERATURE REVIEW FROM 2014 TO 2022
Dora Cutipa Puma
Abstract
The purpose of this work was to conduct a systematic search of the literature based on the
variables associated with “Information and Communication Technology” and “occupational
health” within a range between 2014 and 2022, applying inclusion and exclusion criteria to the
various documents obtained from search engines such as Dialnet, EbscoHost, Elsevier, ProQuest,
ScienceDirect and PubMed. As a result, 50 articles were obtained referring to the period,
language, source of information and contribution in terms of the cognitive, attitudinal and
procedural dimensions of the ICT variable that were predetermined for the research. Similarly, it
was also possible to gather important information on the cultural dimension of occupational
health about risk within the competencies of the public sector and, specifically, within the line of
governance. The article selection process followed a Prism diagram, which revealed the totality of
articles discarded for not meeting the criteria. Likewise, the descriptive and quantitative
methodshelped obtain and process data, thus allowing the systematized presentation of results
supported by descriptive figures to organize the information dynamically. The findings derived
from the study showed that ICTs have undergone a significant evolution framed in the adequacy
of the standardization of processes, especially in the field of public service provision that requires
the circumstantial improvement of governance at all internal and external levels. Likewise, they
provide an improved solution in terms of the occupational health of individuals, specifically in
terms of their mental and physical health, being a relevant factor for the improvement of their
working conditions through their implementation within the public and private sectors, where
they offer a wide range of application.
