Abstract

As atividades de carpintaria e serralharia são fortemente marcadas pelo uso de ferramentas antigas e trabalhadores não qualificados, o que contribui para a ocorrência de acidentes e outros riscos ocupacionais. Através destas discussões, este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar os acidentes ambientais e riscos ergonômicos em uma oficina de carpintaria localizada na cidade de Pau dos Ferros / RN. Assim, o objetivo foi quantificar a exposição ao ruído, medir os valores de temperatura ambiente e umidade, bem como os valores de iluminação ambiente. Para tanto, foram realizadas medições ambientais, bem como registros fotográficos e entrevistas com os responsáveis pelo estabelecimento. De acordo com a pesquisa realizada, nota-se que uma série de aspectos contribuem para o estabelecimento estudado apresentar condições insalubres. Entre os pontos a serem citados, a iluminação, Bem como a temperatura ea produção de ruído são os fatores mais marcantes. Além desses aspectos, a desorganização é também uma problemática presente neste ambiente de trabalho, uma vez que os resíduos não são devidamente descartados e as matérias-primas são amontoadas em meio a detritos e equipamentos. Outro ponto a ser citado é o uso de EPI, o que não ocorre devido à recusa dos empregados.

In the course of history, it is undeniable that many factors impacted this activity, among which the industrial revolution is the most important factor, since many machines and equipment were included in this production segment. In contrast to these points, it can be seen that the evolution occurred did not meet the evolutionary needs that this sector possesses, considering that it is a segment strongly discriminated by the use of tools still devoid of technologies, as well as the use of hand of low-skilled work, which limits the expansion in relation to the other sectors. All the points cited above concern mainly the economic aspects of the activity, they negatively impact the health, well-being and safety of the workers, since the use of outdated tools as well as the adoption of untrained employees increases significantly the possibility of accidents occurring in the work environment, as well as exposure to environmental and ergonomic hazards (KOHAMMADI, et al, 2016)
