Evaluación de Riesgos Ergonómicos en el personal administrativo y operativo del laboratorio Automotriz Reina del Cisne

Abstract

Abstract: Ergonomic risks are related to the postures that workers carry out for the performance of an activity that subsequently is susceptible to develop some type of musculoskeletal disorder, this due to the handling of loads, repetitive movements and forced postures. In this sense, ergonomics focuses on identifying and mitigating these risks to improve efficiency and prevent injuries derived from awkward postures, repetitive movements and excessive efforts, factors that can negatively impact health and work performance. This research aims to evaluate the ergonomic risks in the administrative and operative personnel of the "Reina del Cisne" Automotive Laboratory with the objective of identifying the hazards associated with ergonomic risk factors, the level of risk and level of action. For this purpose, a mixed methodology was used: qualitative-quantitative, analyzing the current situation of the workers and proceeding to propose preventive measures to mitigate the level of ergonomic risk and its incidence in the generation of possible injuries or musculoskeletal disorders in the automotive laboratory personnel.
