Summary: | The objective of this article is to identify prevention actions carried out by stakeholders in a large post-secondary educational institution in Quebec and to understand their opinions about what form integrated prevention should take in coordinating prevention measures. A total of 21 interviews were conducted during ergonomic investigations. We met with four stakeholders – the occupational health and safety (OHS) department, the disability management department, union members, and department managers. The prevention measures reported by these stakeholders at the primary, secondary, and tertiary levels are presented, and the stakeholders’ portrayals of integrated prevention are documented. Given the safety-oriented OHS structure, the measures were also classified according to categories used in the OHS field. The analysis made it possible to consider the actions taken in terms of transformation goals, that is, with regard to the individual or the work environment. Definitions of prevention levels, depictions of integrated prevention, the OHS approach put forward in the institution, as well as measures to prevent health problems with multifactorial sources (e.g., musculoskeletal and mental) are discussed. |
