The new SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus that causes COVID-19 was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on 11 March 2020 due to its rapid spread and the large number of positive cases and deaths; coinciding this date with the first cases diagnosed in Cuba. This research describes the effectiveness of a training methodology to prevent COVID-19 in workplaces. An intervention-action research was carried out using the health audience to develop biosafety topics. A total of 511 workers from 11 workplaces participated; the effectiveness of the training methodology was monitored. Two workplaces were selected as pilot sites, where workers were surveyed to check their compliance with the targeted biosecurity measures. It was demonstrated that the spread of this deadly disease can be prevented and controlled in workplaces with the proper training.
