A inserção da segurança do trabalho na utilização de produtos fitossanitários em propriedades rurais produtoras de fumo em uma comunidade no município de Mallet-PR

Abstract

Security-related actions at work aimed at improving the quality of life. When it comes to workplace safety, is immediately understood as something that comes to provide positive factors. Although little valued by farmers, security targeted for agricultural work comes much to contribute. With regard to tobacco farming, producers involved in this process are the vast majority of family farms, and so put aside their quality of life, aimed at your health and wellness, for the hard work in the tobacco growing, not getting information about the main factor in this medium, which is job security. Can not fail to mention that the tobacco growers deserve greater attention and care, especially with regard to the handling, application and storage of pesticides. It then becomes necessary to adopt security measures that are consistent with the reality of tobacco farming, taking into account working conditions, climate, environmental, and further educate growers about the importance of security measures, offering explanations, references and understandings of reality about the triggering factors of intoxication, to allow for changes in thoughts, perceptions, values of individuals, in order to seek preventive measures of workplace accidents in their different contexts. This project aims to research the use of pesticides in tobacco production and the importance of safety at work in rural areas, more specifically in this culture, in order to identify the methods of handling, storage and application of pesticides to provide better conditions work to producers. The subjects of this research project are farmers who grow tobacco production. Considering observed agents and the reporting of producers as the main source of information, through observations directly in the field and structured interviews, we found that tobacco growers even getting the necessary information and related to work safety training, fall short in their activities in the field. Investigate and understand the reality of the use of pesticides by growers is of paramount importance for academics and practitioners of Agriculture, Occupational Safety and other areas involved in this work (Agricultural Engineers, Safety Engineers Work, among others), can expand their knowledge about this field of study and action, knowing the possible contributing factors to the outbreak of poisoning arising from pesticides and ascertaining how services should be correctly executed. After collecting the information and data observed data analysis relating them to the importance of following the directions of professional correctly as to handling and applications of such products was performed. May thus contribute significantly to the progress of this work.
