Protocolo de Seguridad Laboral para el Ingreso, Permanencia y Salida de Trabajadores en Instalaciones Frigorificas Industriales (Cuartos Fríos) en Bogotá D.C.

Abstract

Industrial refrigeration is an important element for the industry today, especially for some sectors such as food, pharmaceutical and chemical, because the cooling processes help to preserve and preserve in good condition some products for much longer that would last in normal environmental conditions. In some cases, cooling may even be a necessary process for the production or transformation of a product (UNIFRIO, 2016). Exposure of workers at low temperatures during the industrial process, from refrigerated, frozen, stored and transported at very low temperatures (below -4 ° C), changes generate a physiological level in individuals, (Restrepo Bustamante, 2008), the importance of the project with the objective of defining a labor safety protocol for the entry, permanence and exit of workers in industrial refrigeration systems (cold rooms) in Colombia. Industrial refrigeration systems are massifying and in general there is no standardized protocol that allows to protect the health and safety of the personnel that must enter and work in these conditions in the city of Bogotá DC, the protocol is designed so that the Applied Sea of In a sequential way in companies that implement refrigeration processes to maintain the health of workers, it is a legal responsibility of the employer (basically the protocol of occupational diseases), basically the protocol is subdivided into three stages that: 1. Phase of recognition where are the pre-occupational examinations, evaluation of risk factors and hygienic calculations, 2. Phase Implementing Preventive Measures, describing the preparation of activities to prevent accidents and occupational diseases 3. Phase Implement Measures and Control and Monitoring, which corresponds to the implementation of the measures established and their respective monitoring to verify the suitability of the measures.
