Comportamento da gestão de riscos: estudo de caso na construção civil em Guarapuava

Abstract

The area of construction is among the main sectors that cause occupational accidents in Brazil. Thus, the present work proposes to analyze the risk management behavior in a construction work within the scope of occupational safety. To this end, it is proposed to carry out the Preliminary Risk Analysis (APR) for the internal and external cladding phases of a building under construction in Guarapuava, based on the answers obtained about some selected risks inherent to such activities, by of professionals in the construction industry. These responses were also compared with actual accident data for each risk raised in order to define a final risk classification. From the compilation of the data it was found that for some of the risks there is great divergence of answers from the interviewees as well as in relation to the statistical data, however for some risks this did not occur. Because APR is a qualitative methodology and based on the experience of those who conduct it, the scenario obtained is considered normal, concluding that it is of utmost importance in the risk management process to consider both qualitative and quantitative risk analysis. Given the identification of frequency, severity, causes, consequences and risk level, respective means of control were proposed. In future studies, it is also necessary to verify the behavior of the implementation of the proposed mitigating measures, as well as to conduct in-depth analyzes to verify the effectiveness of the proposed risk management, as well as to continue its stages.
