Abstract

The objective of this study was to analyze the profile of the businessmen of Medianeira - Paraná, to verify if the investment in fire prevention and firefighting equipment is considered as an investment or a cost for the legality of the company. In this work a quantitative, qualitative and exploratory research was carried out. The present work used the research through a structured interview with the administrator of a company that provides services in the area of fire fighting and prevention, located in the city of medianeira, in order to obtain the expected results. Regarding the importance of complying with NR 23, only 10% of the clients of the company providing fire prevention and fire services have this perception, simply complying with it due to the legislation in force in the state. The understanding that obtaining these materials is considered an investment for the company amounts to only about 20% of the companies analyzed, so the vast majority still see it as a cost (about 80%), a factor that may be interconnected with the people who until then they did not need to use these items to combat a fire principle and minimize damages and losses. As the company has a record of all the clients, with the control of expiration of the extinguishers, the act of scheduling the services rendered part of the provider company, 95% of the cases, the rest being due to the fact of several occurrences, in that the service is not on schedule. Thus, it is concluded that the share of the companies that purchase the products altruistically is very small, being only acquired due to the imposition of NR 23 and inspection by the fire brigade, that without the issuance of the certificate of inspection of the establishment the owner can not issue the permit, since the municipal administration requires, among others, this document for the issuance of the permit.
