Identificación de peligros, evaluación, valoración de riesgos laborales y estimación de controles en el taller automotriz T.S. bajo la metodología OiRA

Abstract

The present work was carried out in the T.S Automotive Workshop, located within the city of Bogotá, in the town of Barrios Unidos, its objective is the identification of hazards, evaluation and assessment of occupational risks and the estimation of controls. Currently, the Workshop does not have an Occupational Health and Safety Management System (SG-SST), so this research will serve as a starting point for the design of the SG-SST. The implemented methodology began with an analysis of the current conditions of the Workshop, carrying out an inspection at the workplace and a survey of collaborators. This diagnosis showed that the Workshop has some prevention measures for risk situations that may arise, however, they still need to implement control measures. The project continues with the identification of hazards, evaluation and risk assessment through the OiRA methodology, which is an EU-OSHA platform that adapts to small companies and different economic sectors. The work concludes by establishing the mechanisms for the prevention of occupational risks and the correction of processes in the workers dedicated to the brasswork, mechanics, painting and administration activities of the T.S. Automotive Workshop, this will be of great importance for the Workshop which will benefit in the reduction of work accidents and the possible absenteeism that would be generated by collaborators, increasing the productivity and profits of the Workshop. Finally, a cost-benefit analysis was carried out to justify the implementation of these measures and determine the importance of keeping track of the dangers and risks found.
