Los sitios de trabajo y su relación en la generación de posturas forzadas en las tareas de entubado del proyecto de construcción del sistema de agua potable Chiquihurco Pelileo

Abstract

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The present research work is directed the study of ergonomic risk by forced postures, which projects the employer to make decisions about preventive measures that are possible to carry in the construction area in order to take care of the health of workers and to identify inside the processes of tubing, the tasks with greater exposure to forced postures. The main objective is to assess the level of risk by forced postures in the tubing tasks, generating safe working environments. Ergonomic measurements were made directly on the worker using ergonomic methods such as the REBA and the Check List Ocra, resulting in high risk levels due to forced postures and repetitive movements, which leads to better jobs through intervention of staff in this area. Through this need is proposed a prevention program that allows control of ergonomic risk factors by forced postures with necessary intervention, prevailing in the source of danger, in the medium of transmission and finally in the person.
