Introduction: The Colombian legislation through the resolution 1401 of 2007 and the act 1295 of 1994 establishes the follow– up to the fulfillment of the recommendations derived of fatal accidents as an obligation for the risk management company (named in Colombia ARL). Objective: this research approaches the process of follow-up of the actions derived from the causal analysis of the serious and fatal work accidents in regional place of a Colombian ARL. Methods: for an initial diagnosis, the process of follow – up was characterized from the perspective of stakeholders involved through the application of tools of quantitative and qualitative analysis. Such as survey and systematic observation whose results generated a SWOT matrix and a flow chart. Results: the generated results allowed constructing a methodology articulated to some offers of improvement. For its construction this methodology uses different tools like Hierarchic Analysis of Processes (AHP) applied to a group of experts. Management of processes and time study. To validate the designed methodology we were implemented some tools in a pilot test in which follow-up is realized to the recommendations of punctual work accidents. Conclusion: Is important to emphasize that the methodology designed. in addition to formalizing the process. is going to impact both economically and the relationship person-hours by reducing operating times and expected on the long term its promoting the prevention of accidents at work by the same causes.
