MASSON, Letícia Pessoa; GOMES, Luciana  y  BRITO, Jussara. Meetings about the work: reflections on the use of this methodological tool in research in neonatal intensive care units (nicu). Laboreal [online]. 2015, vol.11, n.1, pp.23-38. ISSN 1646-5237.  https://doi.org/10.15667/laborealxi0115lpm.

We intend to discuss the use of a methodological tool, called "Meetings about the work", which follows the principles of Ergology, in order to promote the discussion, the reflection and the development of the work activity. The discussion is developed from the presentation of the ways this tool is used in two research experiences that sought to understand-transform the relation between health and work of nurses in NICU. We found that this group device has great potential for positive transformation in the thinking-acting of key players from the activity group and from the formal knowledge group, as well as in the labour means. We have identified challenges and lessons learned in its operation relating, specially, to the language and the materials used to animate the Meetings, the effective referrals and risks of failure, to its educational character and to its importance for the achievement of health.

Palabras clave : Meetings about the work; Ergology; Neonatal Intensive Care Units; Nurses; Occupational health.
