This hospital has little alore than 2.000 nurses. Two methods of an were used. 1) The Collective Analysis of Work (ACT - Analise Coletiva do Trabolho), consists of meetings with small groups of workers who explain their work. Four meetings were scheduled, and 34 participants, almost all of them females, attended. 2) The Model for An and Prevention of Accidents (MAPA), a unique method for the occupational accidents an was held in one of the hospital clinics, with an injured worker that agreed to participate. The results revealed that work routines consist of a list of patients care tasks, characterized by a great variability in their daily work schedule.
