What is Prevención Integral
Prevención Integral is a content portal specializing in occupational safety and health. It functions as both a digital platform and a document repository: publishing news and articles on current prevention topics, maintaining a database of technical documentation, and hosting materials from conferences and workshops organized within the ORP environment.
Its nature is that of a media outlet and content platform, not that of an organization with its own institutional identity in the field of prevention. The website’s legal notice identifies the owner as the company Easy Tech Global, SL, with registered office at Parc UPC Campus Nord in Barcelona, the same location as the headquarters of the ORP International Foundation.
That distinction matters. Prevención Integral is not a foundation, a professional association, or a technical body: it is the editorial channel through which content from the ORP environment and third parties who collaborate with it is published.
What content does it include?
The portal is organized into several stable areas.
- Current affairs. News, editorials and analysis on regulations, accident rates, technology and preventive management, with attention to Spain and Latin American countries.
- Documentation. Technical guides, protocols, technical prevention notes, international guidelines and awareness materials.
- Community. Professional blogs, business directory, and bulletin board.
- ORP Channel. Papers and presentations given at ORP conferences, available online.
- Training. Information on training programs related to the Foundation’s environment.
The portal brings together the accumulated volume of presentations from ORP congresses, allowing users to follow the evolution of specific topics across successive editions and in several countries at the same time.
Relationship with the ORP International Foundation
The ORP International Foundation presents Prevención Integral among its publications, alongside the ORP Journal. The portal is, in practice, the dissemination channel for the ORP community: it publishes the call for papers and materials for its conferences and provides support to its professional community.
According to its own legal notice, the registered ownership of the site belongs to Easy Tech Global, SL. This record includes both pieces of information without equating them: there is an accredited editorial link with the Foundation and a commercial ownership separate from the foundation itself.
Contribution to safety and health at work
The portal’s primary function is documentary. It brings together in one place, and in Spanish, materials that are otherwise scattered among technical organizations, conferences, and publications in different countries, thus facilitating the work of comparison for those who need to examine how the same problem is addressed in various legal systems.
As a medium, it also contributes to the circulation of new regulations and techniques within the Ibero-American professional community, a space in which very different legal frameworks coexist.
Its limitations are those of any specialized medium: content published by third parties, including blogs, does not have the weight of a legally binding source. To establish a legal obligation, one must always refer to the official text, the relevant bulletin, or the competent technical body.
Practical application
A prevention technician can use the portal as a starting point to locate documentation and presentations, and then verify the data in the primary source: the official bulletin that publishes the standard, the guide of the technical body that develops it, or the publication of the cited international organization.
For those preparing a paper or academic work, the archive of ORP conference presentations hosted on the portal allows for the identification of previous work and helps avoid duplication. When citing it, it is advisable to specify the particular presentation and the conference it was held at, not just the portal.
