Análise de riscos ergonômicos do trabalhador rural na operação de pulverização manual da cultura do café

Abstract

This project utilizes NR 17 (Ergonomics); it permits the implementation and adaptation of HSE (health safety and environment) parameters focused on the job conditions and physical characteristics of the workers. To complement the NR 17, the NR 31 was used since it is about ergonomics in the rural environment. The main objective of the project is to research and document the findings using images to demonstrate the ergonomic posture used by workers on the manual pulverization of coffee plantation. For the development of this project studies that are focused on health, safety and environment were also utilized, like the paper: “Ergonomics: project, production and analysis of ergonomics by the OWAS method.” This project study methodology explored data and information from small farmers in the district of Centenário do Sul - PR that cultivates coffee. The project collected photos, data, interviews that were studied and analyzes using the software OWAS. As a result, different body postures were identified that can bring health issues and risk of injuries to the rural workers while conducting manual pulverization. Methods and practices to prevent incorrect postures will be presented to help facilitate workers well being when working.
