Gamified Exercise for the Appropriation of Concepts in Occupational Health and Safety

This article presents an innovative educational tool called "Risks Career Game" designed to improve education in occupational health and safety in educational settings. The game focuses on recreating real workplace situations to reaffirm concepts and knowledge related to applicable regulations in occupational health and safety. The tool was developed using design thinking methodology and is structured into an initial stage of explaining the activity's mechanics, followed by a gameplay stage where students must identify and solve problems related to occupational health and safety. The Risks Career Game is presented as an innovative solution to address deficiencies in the teaching and learning process of occupational health and safety, and is considered to have the potential to revolutionize the way this subject is taught and learned. The tool is adaptable to virtual and face-to-face environments and is useful for subjects such as industrial engineering, human talent, and occupational health.

Abstract

This article presents an innovative educational tool called "Risks Career Game" designed to improve education in occupational health and safety in educational settings. The game focuses on recreating real workplace situations to reaffirm concepts and knowledge related to applicable regulations in occupational health and safety. The tool was developed using design thinking methodology and is structured into an initial stage of explaining the activity's mechanics, followed by a gameplay stage where students must identify and solve problems related to occupational health and safety. The Risks Career Game is presented as an innovative solution to address deficiencies in the teaching and learning process of occupational health and safety, and is considered to have the potential to revolutionize the way this subject is taught and learned. The tool is adaptable to virtual and face-to-face environments and is useful for subjects such as industrial engineering, human talent, and occupational health.
