Evaluación ergonómica de los puestos de trabajo administrativos mediante el método Rosa en la empresa Zoila Jaramillo Maquinarias y Servicios CIA. LTDA.

Abstract

Abstract: The administrative area is a central part of any business. Every organizational structure has an administrative department. Several studies show that there are ergonomic risks in these types of jobs, especially when using display screens. The Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador and other laws, agreements, and treaties in the country and the region mention the importance of providing safe and healthy workplaces for employees. This study was done to identify the level of impact from ergonomic risk factors in the administrative positions of the company "Zoila Jaramillo Jaramillo Maquinaria y servicios CIA. LTDA." Two tools were used: the Kuorinka Nordic Questionnaire, which helps to identify musculoskeletal problems, and the ROSA method, which helps to find the level of risk when using display screens (VDU), especially in administrative jobs. In this case, the study focused on the five existing positions, so it was not necessary to do a sample or use statistical methods.
