Introduction

In November 2020, the previous regulatory provision was repealed and the second version of the technical document called "Guidelines for health surveillance of workers at risk of exposure to SARS-CoV-2" was approved due to scientific progress and information provided by the Directorate for Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable, Rare and Orphan Diseases. The duty of prevention of employers, the role of supervision and control of the State and the participation of workers and their trade union organizations, who, through social dialogue, ensure the promotion, dissemination and enforcement of regulations on the subject", and its guiding principles are prevention, responsibility, cooperation, information and training, comprehensive management, comprehensive health care, consultation and participation, primacy of reality, and protection. Its Regulations are approved by means of and subsequently modified on several occasions.

Occupational Safety and Health is defined as the process that includes activities aimed at promoting the prevention of risks to civil servants in the performance of their work that may affect their health or integrity, as well as the protection of the entity's assets and the environment. Expected products: Occupational health and safety plan and programs, OSH training plan, Occupational health and safety incident record, OSH diagnosis (Hazard Identification and Risk Evaluation - IPER), among others.

Therefore, it is clear that "OSH is a process that is part of the Human and Social Relations Management System that makes up the Administrative System of Human Resources Management in public entities", so that the Human Resources Office, or the one that takes its place in the entity, is the office in charge of its management and compliance with the provisions.

It envisages the employer's duty to communicate to its workers in an adequate and effective manner, the necessary information and knowledge in relation to the risks in the workplace and in the specific position or function, as well as the protection and prevention measures applicable to such risks. The employer also has the duty to provide its workers with the appropriate personal protective equipment, according to the type of work and specific risks present in the performance of their duties, when the occupational risks or their harmful effects on health cannot be eliminated at their source, it verifies the effective use of the same.

In this context, and according to its budget availability, the Local Educational Management Unit of Ventanilla has implemented preventive measures and actions to preserve people's health and continue providing services to citizens through the virtualization of some administrative procedures. To date, priority has been given to mixed work for the development of the entity's own activities as planned. Plúas, points out that "occupational health and industrial safety form an inseparable binomial that guarantees the minimization of occupational risks and the prevention of accidents at work". who describes the difference between the two indicating that "Industrial safety concentrates on unsafe acts and conditions, while occupational health concentrates on health risks, and as a logical consequence, industrial safety studies accidents and occupational risks with a preventive and investigative approach, while occupational health studies occupational diseases based on early diagnosis and pertinent treatment. Likewise, occupational health encompasses industrial hygiene, occupational medicine and occupational mental health; while industrial safety encompasses ergonomics and environmental analysis." (2020, p. 34).

For his part, Anaya-Velasco, (2017) indicates that "The health and safety of people are fundamental to achieve a full life, a better work performance and the development of potentialities in different aspects and areas of their lives. For this reason, and in order to protect them, there are international conventions and national legal frameworks that recover scientific and technological advances in health, safety and hygiene at work, environmental care and civil protection".

According to Benavides et al. "Surveys on working conditions, employment and health have been consolidating as an effective tool for an adequate monitoring of workers' health". ( 2016 p. 4).

In addition to the above, Arias et al. states that "Industrial safety is one of the multidisciplinary areas with the most tools, techniques and models to intervene in human actions or behaviors in the face of risk, and for this purpose it strategically uses training, coaching and permanent learning from experiences as a basis". , (2019 p. 4).

Materials and methods

The research proposal was to determine the impact of the implementation of measures for the surveillance, prevention and control of COVID-19 in the Ventanilla Local Educational Management Unit, using the technique of bibliographic and documentary review of primary sources with a descriptive qualitative approach with a research design based on grounded theory.

According to (Persigo et al., 2020) the process of documentary research arises from the collection of information and data through reading, giving an important meaning to the research source bibliography. In other words, documentary research is part of scientific research and allows developing skills and attitudes in the researcher that are required for the selection and collection of information such as inquiring, analyzing, interpreting and reflecting on the theoretical and empirical realities, data and information obtained regarding a given topic.

This research was conducted under a descriptive qualitative approach, taking into account that in these studies the purpose of the research is to describe how certain phenomena or situations are manifested, thus submitting to analysis various aspects, dimensions or components of the phenomenon to be investigated. In this regard, several authors have spoken out and they were not the exception because they stated that in a descriptive study it is necessary to select a series of questions that will be independent objects of analysis for the description of what is being investigated.

Thus, grounded theory is considered a qualitative research design that allows the researcher to inquire into the unknown to provide knowledge about a specific phenomenon, but its importance lies in the fact that it is advisable to use this research design when there is little knowledge about the phenomenon to be investigated.

It should also be pointed out that narrative or qualitative scientific review articles are classified according to the nature of the review, which can be exhaustive, descriptive and evolutionary. This scientific article is a descriptive review because, according to what is stated by "it provides the reader with an update on useful concepts in areas in constant evolution because it is very useful in different fields of education and of interest to people with related knowledge" (Merino-trujillo, 2013 p. 32). The same author also specifies that "The review article is considered as a detailed, selective and critical study that examines the published literature and places it in a certain perspective", furthermore that "it is not an original publication and its purpose is to conduct research on a given topic, in which the relevant and necessary information concerning the research problem to be addressed is gathered, analyzed and discussed". (Merino-trujillo, 2013 p. 35).
