Diseño de un plan integral de seguridad industrial para el sistema productivo en la empresa Rectificadora Salcedo

Abstract

The present investigative work aims to provide the company Rectificadora Salcedo with the design of a Comprehensive Industrial Safety Plan for its production system, with the objective of establishing occupational risk prevention and control measures. This arises from the existing issues caused by the absence of protocols and safety measures. To address this, a qualitative and quantitative approach is applied, examining both the perception and experience of personnel to diagnose the company's current situation. Risk assessment was carried out using the General Risk Assessment Guide from INSHT. Thirteen activities were evaluated across twelve workstations within the production system, identifying sixteen risks, of which nine were deemed unacceptable. Manual load handling, analyzed using the GINSHT method, represents a non-tolerable risk, as the actual manipulated weight exceeds the recommended limit by 6.6 kg. Additionally, the analysis of safety conditions using the William T. Fine method determined that most occupational risks related to projected materials and burns were classified as low; however, the risk of falling objects was categorized as medium. Finally, the importance of implementing control strategies to mitigate biomechanical risks and identified safety conditions is emphasized. The designed proposals are presented to the company's general manager, who evaluates their feasibility and commits to their future implementation, promoting optimal conditions for a safe and healthy work environment.
