Workplace Safety Performance Analysis in a Cast-in-place Concrete Structure Work

Abstract

The constructive system of cast-in-place concrete structure results in a cheap and fast construction. This low cost is also reflected in the investment in work safety on site, requiring attention because civil construction poses a high risk to worker safety. This work aims to identify and analyze the risks of accidents in a concrete structure cast in loco. The methodology consisted of three stages, a case study and characterization of the work, development and application of a checklist and assessment of identified risks. The checklist was applied daily for 1 (one) month on site, allowing frequent risks to be identified. A total of 471 disagreements were identified, most of which were related to the assembly and disassembly of metallic forms. Through the results obtained with the HRN (Hazard Rating Number) method, it was possible to demonstrate the listing and prioritization of containment, correction and prevention measures, which must be adopted by the management of the work.
