- Abstract
Objective: recognizing the perception of basic health attention workers about their environmental responsibility. Method: an exploratory and descriptive research, with a qualitative approach, conducted with basic health attention units’ workers. The data were collected through a semi-structured interview and were analyzed based on the reference for content analysis. Results: the subjects mentioned the separation of recyclables as the main environmental-related activity. They demonstrated having difficulties in expressing their environmental responsibility, but they understand this as inherent to everybody. They also showed concerns about the community´s lack of care and education and the lack of government incentive to approach this topic. Conclusion: it is necessary to ponder about the personal and professional attitudes starting from their instruction as health workers; to make the community conscious in order to play its active part in the construction of health and to make stronger public policies of socio-environmental aims.
