The acceleration of industrial automation in recent years has ensured more protection for workers, since reducing the risks of manufacturing operations is one of the premises of this technological transformation.<\/p>\n

However, there is the other side of the coin. Without safety in the operation of machines<\/strong>, there may be an increase in occupational accidents if there is recklessness, lack of adequate training or if the equipment is not subjected to frequent maintenance, which aggravates risky situations.<\/p>\n

In this sense, there is no point in investing in the modernization of the manufacturing plant without considering the training of professionals who will be in charge of operations. Each position has its risks, and the information improves prevention practices in each daily task.<\/p>\n

Therefore, implement actions such as signaling the work environment, making the risks and dangers of each post clear, periodic inspection of the team’s behavior during the activities and the use of PPE’s in an appropriate manner.<\/p>\n

These are the main fundamental practices for the prevention of occupational accidents, normally organized and carried out by an internal accident prevention commission.<\/p>\n
