Abstract(s)
A produção de resíduos é consequência da atividade humana. A sociedade moderna é extremamente consumista fazendo com que a produção de resíduos urbanos aumente numa escala considerável. A recolha desses resíduos torna-se assim numa atividade diária em que os trabalhadores que a realizam se encontram expostos a diversos perigos e riscos devido, por exemplo, ao contacto direto com resíduos e ao desgaste físico decorrente do ritmo do trabalho. É através da avaliação de risco que se procede à prevenção das situações de risco identificadas. É no contexto desta temática que surge, no seguimento do relatório de projeto do 1.o ano, o presente Trabalho de Projeto, desenvolvido no âmbito do Mestrado em Segurança e Higiene no Trabalho, lecionado na Escola Superior de Ciências Empresariais de Setúbal em parceria com a Escola Superior de Tecnologia de Setúbal, que visa reavaliar o processo de avaliação de riscos existente no serviço de Remoção do Município de Sesimbra e alargar o seu âmbito a outra atividade (varredura manual e mecânica dos arruamentos), sendo esse o objetivo principal a atingir. Como objetivo secundário estipulou-se a elaboração de uma análise diagnóstico (sumária) ao nível da Segurança e Saúde no Trabalho. Por outro lado, foram definidos objetivos específicos que, articulados com o objetivo principal, visam rever a metodologia de avaliação de riscos adotada no trabalho anterior (método simplificado), implementar as medidas de controlo propostas e reavaliar o nível de risco, aplicar a metodologia de avaliação de riscos (método de William T. Fine) com avaliação financeira das medidas de controlo propostas, alargar o seu âmbito a outra atividade e comparar as duas metodologias de avaliação de riscos aplicadas. Em termos metodológicos, a identificação de perigos e riscos associados foi efetuada através de métodos qualitativos e a análise e avaliação de riscos através de métodos semi quantitativos (método simplificado e método de William T. Fine). Como principais conclusões refere-se que esta é uma temática à qual as organizações cada vez dão mais importância, sendo que a avaliação de riscos, independentemente da metodologia adotada, se apresenta como uma ferramenta útil, de apoio e suporte às organizações, que permite prevenir os riscos profissionais e promover a saúde dos trabalhadores.
Waste production is a consequence of human activity. Modern society is extremely consumerist and, as a result, the production of urban waste increases considerably. The collection of this waste becomes a daily activity in which the workers carrying it out are exposed to various dangers and risks due, for example, to direct contact with waste and the physical wear and tear caused by the pace of their work. It is through risk assessment that we proceed to the prevention of the identified risk situations. It is in the context of this theme that arises, following the 1st year project report, the present Project Work, developed under the Master in Safety and Hygiene at Work, taught at the School of Business Sciences of Setúbal in partnership with the School of Technology of Setúbal, which aims to re-evaluate the risk assessment process existing in the Removal service of the Municipality of Sesimbra and extend its scope to another activity (manual and mechanical sweeping of streets), this being the main objective to achieve. As a secondary objective, the preparation of a (summary) diagnostic analysis of Health and Safety at Work was stipulated. On the other hand, specific objectives were defined which, articulated with the main objective, aim to review the risk assessment methodology adopted in the previous work (simplified method), implement the proposed control measures and reassess the risk level, apply the risk assessment methodology (William T. Fine method) with financial assessment of the proposed control measures, extend its scope to another activity and compare the two risk assessment methodologies applied. In methodological terms, the identification of hazards and associated risks was performed through qualitative methods and the risk analysis and assessment through semi-quantitative methods (simplified method and method of William T. Fine). As main conclusions, this is a theme to which organizations are giving increasing importance, and risk assessment, regardless of the methodology adopted, is a useful tool to support organizations, allowing them to prevent occupational risks and promote workers' health.
