Gestión de riesgos mecánicos e implementación de señalética y monitoreo por cámaras en el laboratorio de materiales de la Facultad de Mecánica de la ESPOCH.

Abstract

This word describes the development of mechanical hazards management and implementation of signage and camera monitoring in the materials laboratory of Faculty of Mechanics at ESPOCH in order to create a safe environment for teachers and students. Risk management was carried out through the risks identification and evaluation using the criteria taken from technical note prevention (NTP 330) on the assessment of exposure, probability, consequence an intervention levels, a matrix of goals and objectives was carried out after the hazard assessment as well as plans and programs were developed in order to mitigate and eliminate risks in the laboratory. The risk management allowed us to improve the conditions in which the practice and carried out by means of an order and cleaning program implementation, which will serve to eliminate what does not work and keep the useful, relocating equipment and materials in a specific area. Chemical substance management program which is a guide to help the educational technician to handle correctly and prevent risks posed; Signaling program allowed to define jobs and create a culture of prevention through the use of personal protective equipment: the development of an institutional risk management plan including the analysis of threats, vulnerabilities and laboratory characteristics for the preparation of the Risk Map, training, formation of brigades, creation of simulations, signage implementation, institution rehabilitation activities and de validation of the plan. It is recommended to apply all proposed plans and programs in the risk management so that the activities that are carried out in the laboratory in order to improve the working conditions in it.
