Abstract(s)
Este estudo apresenta os resultados da investigação efetuada no Metropolitano de
Lisboa. Apresentamos os riscos ocupacionais dos trabalhadores, na área da manutenção
da via-férrea, e a perceção que os trabalhadores têm perante esses mesmos riscos. Para
tentarmos compreendermos o que é risco e tipo de acidentes que acontecem,
recorremos a uma larga bibliografia.
As categorias profissionais estudadas, foram aquelas em que os riscos ocupacionais são
mais elevados a nível dos acidentes de trabalho. Referimo-nos às categorias de oficial de
via, técnicos (auxiliares e técnicos principais, mais conhecidos por MOM´s). A metodologia
utilizada neste estudo de caso englobou a entrevista e a pesquisa de terreno com
observação participante. A avaliação de riscos é a ferramenta fundamental para a
prevenção de acidentes e doenças profissionais. Com este trabalho, pretendemos ainda
avaliar a perceção de riscos que envolvem os trabalhadores no desempenho das suas
funções. Observou-se, que os trabalhadores têm alguma consciência dos riscos, mas
subvalorizam os efeitos pessoais desses mesmos riscos em trabalhos de curta duração ou
de rotina.
A avaliação de riscos realizada permitiu identificar as atividades analisadas, nas tarefas
em que esse risco é mais elevado, e ainda definir prioridades de intervenção.
Em 2014 – 2016 os oficiais de via registaram um aumento do número de acidentes de
trabalho, enquanto na categoria MOM´s, esse aumento ocorreu nos anos de 2014 e 2015.
Os acidentes de trabalho, quer nos oficiais de via quer nos MOM´s tiveram causas
humanas, derivadas ao stress, ao horário noturno e à exigência do tipo de trabalho.
Da análise dos resultados obtidos deduz-se que, embora os trabalhadores em estudo
identifiquem os principais riscos existentes, desvalorizam determinados riscos. Esta
tendência, diminui com a experiência e hábitos profissionais.
This study presents the results of the investigation carried out in the Lisbon Metropolitan. We present the occupational risks of workers, in the area of railway maintenance, and the perception that workers face these same risks. To try to understand what is the risk and type of accidents that happen, we use a wide bibliography. The professional categories studied, were those in which occupational risks are higher at the level of accidents at work. We refer to the categories of Highway officer, technicians (auxiliary and main technicians, better known as MOM ´ 's). The methodology used in this case study encompassed the interview and the survey of land with participant observation. Risk assessment is the key tool for preventing accidents and occupational diseases. With this work, we also want to assess the perception of risks involving workers in the performance of their functions. It has been observed, that workers have some awareness of the risks, but they underestimate the personal effects of these same risks in short-lived or routine jobs. The risk assessment has made it possible to identify the activities analyzed, in the tasks where this risk is higher, and also to define intervention priorities. In 2014 – 2016 The track officers recorded an increase in the number of accidents at work, while in the MOM ´ 's category, this increase occurred in the years 2014 and 2015. Accidents at work, both in the track officers or in the MOM ´ s have had human causes, derived from stress, night time and the requirement of the type of work. From the analysis of the results obtained it is deduced that, although the study workers identify the main risks existing, they devalue certain risks. This tendency decreases with experience and professional habits.
