Aplicação do gerenciamento de risco baseado no PMBoK no setor avícola na região Oeste do Paraná

Abstract

The occurrence of accidents and occupational diseases generates numerous damages to the workers and victims involved, which makes relevant the analysis of the possible causative factors, that contribute and generate these accidents. In the poultry business, several aspects related to job security need to be improved. This work is a study about the risks present in the activity of poultry farming for poultry breeders from two farms in the western region of Paraná. The steps of planning, risk identification, qualitative and quantitative analysis, risk responses, monitoring and risk management control of the PMBoK guide were followed. Data were collected through in situ observations during a 45-day broiler breeding cycle and a semi-structured interview with 12 workers. It was possible to identify that the workers of this activity are exposed to all types of risks and that the risks of accidents and ergonomic are those of higher priority and probability of occurrence. The activity of the poultry industry requires a great physical effort of its workers, being considered heavy and of great repetitiveness. It was also possible to conclude that there is a lack of attention to these workers, who do not receive instructions and information on the use of protective equipment, health and safety at work. Applying risk management in this activity was of great value, since it was possible to know the present risks and propose measures to mitigate or even avoid them, thus contributing to improve the quality of life of these workers.
