title: [Intervention in the process of work-health-disease based on the Betty Neuman's systems model].
abstract: This article proposes a referential landmark directed to the worker's area, attempting to answer theoretical and methodological needs in this field of action and professional intervention. The controversy of the relation work-health-disease and its implications to nursing are very challenging and, at the same time, quite intriguing as we seek for its interrelationships. Therefore, we intend to unfold them adopting the structural path of The Neuman Systems Model, systematizing a proposal of nursing action compromised with the relation work-health-disease. Also, we wish to investigate stress factors at work, environment and individual resources to deal with them, and the goals established to the interaction between nurse and worker. This interaction is seen as fundamental to the proposal of educational and/or assistencial actions to the worker's health. It is our intention to contribute with information and propositions to induce reflective thought and debate about the subject.
