Aplicação do método AHP (Análise Hierárquica do Processo) para priorização de ações em programas de segurança do trabalho

Abstract

The main objective of work safety is to prevent accidents and illnesses related to work environments. In this way, the occupational hygiene programs and the security notebooks of the companies aim to put prevention actions into practice. However, because it is a subject with many variables and human factors, there are many difficult decision-making situations. In this sense, sampling plans, sizing and action schedules are, or can be, elaborated without a rational logic for defining the stages of execution of the works. In order to try to rationalize the decision making by a consultant, it is proposed in this work, the application of the Preliminary Risk Analysis (APR) methodologies, associated with Hierarchical Process Analysis (AHP), so that with the selection of the technical consultant, it is possible to hierarchize the risks and order them, according to your preferences. For the application of the methodology, a study was carried out in a market in the western region of Santa Catarina, in the establishment “on-site” inspections and documentary analysis were carried out to recognize occupational risks. Based on the recognition, the APR and AHP methodologies were applied to define the most important risks and which must have preventive actions with a higher degree of priority in relation to the others.
