Quality Management in Corporate Health: A Study in the Energy Sector

Purpose: This study analyzes quality management in corporate health, focusing on the energy sector. It investigates the tools used and their impact on organizational performance to understand the knowledge produced in this field.
Methodology: A systematic literature review was conducted to identify quality management practices in corporate health care and assess their applicability to the needs of companies in the energy
sector. The process involved preliminary data collection from the databases Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed/Medline, followed by a thorough analysis of the documents found to create a new database aligned with the research objectives. Subsequently, an analysis of the selected material was carried out.
Findings: The research revealed a significant gap in the literature related to occupational health and quality management in energy companies. The lack of dissemination of findings by some organizations has contributed to a limited understanding of effective practices in these areas.
However, as awareness of these issues increases, opportunities for positive change are emerging.
Developing management models that address the complexity of the sector and promoting the visibility of best practices are essential for enhancing quality management and occupational health processes
within the energy industry.
Research limitations: Conducting a literature review on a limited set of databases can reveal some principal issues, including biases in coverage and analysis, as well as problems with access to
identified documents. These constraints may result in a partial view of the field and exclude relevant materials available in other sources that were not consulted.
Value: By learning about the best practices and tools used in occupational health management from a quality perspective, companies can develop more effective strategies to promote the health and wellbeing of their employees. This not only contributes to operational safety but also to the  sustainablesuccess of the business.
