For the elaboration of the safe work procedures manual that was carried out in the Camal of the Decentralized Autonomous Government of the San Pedro de Pelileo Canton, belonging to the province of Tungurahua, an occupational risk analysis was carried out in all areas to know the current situation of the Camal. After identifying the jobs and the activities performed, we proceeded to identify the hazard factors, which is necessary before the risk assessment and preparation of the occupational risk assessment matrix, to identify, assess, quantitatively evaluate the existing risk factors, and proceed to control the risks identified by the level of intervention, under the NTP 330 standard. With the result of the identification of hazards and evaluation of occupational risks in the slaughtering process of the slaughterhouse, 122 risk factors were identified, of which 43% correspond to risks classified as mechanical risks, in addition to the handling of short sharp tools, which was found to have a higher rate of repetition in the processes of pig and cattle slaughtering, representing 10%, and finally 4% was evaluated as a critical situation requiring urgent correction. Once the results of the hazard identification analysis were analyzed, a manual of safe work procedures was prepared to prevent and control the risk factors to which the operators of the slaughterhouse are exposed, causing accidents and occupational diseases, which will contribute to the development and optimization of activities in the process of slaughtering pigs and cattle, which will maintain the welfare and integrity of the workers.
