At the present time it is one of the quantitative tools most used in the decision making, that has generated important profits in a wide variety of organizations. Hundreds of articlesthat describe applications in finances, economy, logistic (cover, location and distribution), production, social sciences, medicine, etc., have been published. The porpose of this paper is to show theapplicability of the OR in the solution of occupational health problems; scope that in our country constitutes an unexplored breach. In individual, it is demonstrated how it is possible to model aproduction system where the workers are exposed to noise. Like result, an optimal job rotation schedule was obtained, assuming productive and dose of noise constraints. The benefits of the applicationof OR techniques, are associated with the determination of technical and economically optimal solutions for health workers protection exposed to certain environmental factors or forms of joborganization, and the possibility to develop simulations or sensitivity analysis.
