| Summary: | This study addressed the environmental control of an IVF laboratory and the potential repercussions that the presence of certain physical, chemical and biological agents could have on workers' health or on the tasks they carried out. The design of the laboratory and its facilities contributed to an improvement in work quality and minimised the environmental-related risks. The preventive measures adopted had an influence on the carried out actions.<br>Este estudo dirige-se ao controle ambiental de um laboratório "in vitro fertilization (IVF)" e das repercussões potenciais que a presença de determinados agentes físicos, químicos e biológicos possa ter na saúde nos trabalhadores' ou nas tarefas que se realizem. O projeto do laboratório e de suas facilidades contribui a uma melhoria na qualidade do trabalho e minimiza riscos ambiental-relacionados. As medidas preventivas adotadas têm uma influência nas ações realizadas. |
