    This research study is carried out in the productive area of HERON, a manufacturing company located in the Lasso neighborhood, Tanicuchi parish, Latacunga canton of the Cotopaxi province, specialized in the design and construction of stainless equipment and machinery for the food industry. The INSHT risk assessment matrix was achieved to identify the hazards and estimate the risks in the different jobs of the company, which resulted in identifying a total of 101 risks in the 12 existing jobs to mechanical risks, 12% to environmental risks, 10% to psychosocial risks, 9% to ergonomic risks, 5% to physical risks and 3% to chemical risks. Twenty trivial risks were identified, 48 tolerable, 23 moderate, 8 important and 2 intolerable. The evaluation of mechanical risks was carried out using the NTP 330 methodology, which allowed the identification of 25 mechanical risks, of which 18 are better, 5 important and 2 intolerable critical that require immediate correction, while 80% of the risks are at level II, which requires correcting and adopting control measures. Finally, as a preventive measure for risk control, a risk management plan is proposed that includes company information, risk assessment methods and a series of programs and procedures suggested for the proper development of activities in the production área.
