ABSTRACT

Introduction: The Covid -19 Pandemic had caused a worldwide crisis leading to many negative consequences on healthy habits, biomechanical system, and mental health to students and workers. The National University is the main University in Colombia;it has around 30.000 students and 10.000 workers. Due to the Pandemic, many workers had to work from home, which generated consequences that had to be interrupted. Material and Methods: Through the application of many virtual surveys, we could choose the main topics to be included in this strategy. Finally we selected the next ones and worked on them from our office: - biomechanical, due to the new physical ergonomics conditions. - psychosocial, related to many factors as epidemic Pandemic behavior, new family issues at home, addictions, etc. - nutrition facts, because of inadequate eating habits. - cardiovascular, due to the aspects listed above, and sedentary lifestyle. - occupational health facts, remembering the importance of preventing work-related injuries. Results and Conclusions: Many employees and students at our university had been highly motivated to go back on having healthy habits, which, in some cases have had a positive impact on their families;who have been sharing the same home space with the workers during the Pandemic. According to the intervention developed by our Occupational Health Office, in alliance with the University´s Faculty of Medicine, we are improving our workers lifestyle, which will have positive impacts on them and their families. It represents such an important aspect that will ameliorate our community public health results.
