The present research aimed to evaluate the occupational risks to which workers who carry out conventional maneuvering activities are exposed. Conventional maneuvering is the process of lifting and positioning equipment, components, or materials; executed with the hands or with the aid of manually controlled mechanical equipment or devices. This descriptive study was carried out in three most representative works of conventional maneuvering for the company Stierlift SA, one of the most representative in the field. The methodology used included: job observation, interviewing workers and company representatives, applying surveys to evaluate working conditions and infrastructure, identifying hazards, and finally, evaluating occupational hazards. The results show that workers are mainly exposed to a medium to high level of risk; while, on average of the three maneuvering tasks considered in t...

This article aims to present the risks in operations in a compressed natural gas compression station, to which employees are exposed to accidents and occupational diseases. The natural gas loading process consists of filling a semi-trailer with compressed natural gas by using a high-pressure hose from a loading table connected to a semi-trailer, where the gas comes from the quality pipeline and is compressed by compressors. for natural gas. This study is descriptive, the most relevant risks in the compressed natural gas loading process were evaluated. The methodology that was implemented was based on the information collected from the company's workers (accidents that occurred, occupational medical examinations carried out, surveys or other records), classifying the types of risks existing in each task according to the job position, where we identified the hazard and assess the level of ...
