ABSTRACT
Introduction: Stomatology faculties have a predominant role in environmental management for their general performance, innovation and sustainable development. Objective: to diagnose the aspects and associated environmental impacts in the Faculty of Stomatology of Havana in the period 2015-2017. Method: qualitative research. Theoretical methods of analysis and synthesis, deduction and induction were used and as empirical methods the observation and system approach; bibliographic and documentary review was made on subjects related to the object of study. In addition, a survey and an interview were applied. The population and sample constituted 90 workers. Results: through the diagnosis, environmental aspects and impacts were identified and evaluated, which are not significant due to the possibility of their occurrence, given the general evaluation. The environmental conditions of the faculty did not constitute a high risk for the health of the personnel and their community. The diagnosis allowed to know the position of the organization with respect to its environment and internally to manage the environment and health and safety at work. Conclusions: a diagnosis of environmental aspects and impacts in the Faculty of Dentistry can be a useful tool for the identification of problems that affect the environment, health and safety of work, which could allow the design of Environmental Management Systems, what is a requirement of the Cuban Public Health.REFERENCES
