Introduction: Sanitary professionals are exposed daily to different biological risks generated by their work environment Objective: Describe the profile of work accidents caused by biological risks in a secondary level health care institution. Palmira-Valle del Cauca. 2014-2016. Materials and methods: Descriptive, retrospective study performed with 37 reports. For the quantitative variables, central tendency and dispersion were calculated, and for the qualitative variables, proportions and ratios. To analyze the relation between variables the Pearson’s chi-squared test, fisher or the median were used according to the distribution of data, considering a value of p≤0,05 as significant. Results: Most of the workers injured were young women, mainly auxiliary nurses which were injured by sharps (needles) during morning shifts and in services of greater demand (emergencies and hospitalization). 89% of the workers exposed to biological risk did not use safety materials or equipment at the moment of the accident. The frequent causes were needle manipulation and movements of the patient when performing assistant procedures. Hands were the most affected area. Conclusions: The object that caused the accident, the place of the injury, the service, the age of the worker, the shift and the charge in the health care service institution, determined the profile of the work accidents which registered the greatest number of work accidents with exposure to biological risks; the most frequent causes were associated to the manipulation of sharp objects when the assistant or nurse attends the patient.
