Abstract

This paper has as its main goal to propose, implement and evaluate a Management System of Hygiene, Health and Security at the Work Environment (SG-HSSMAT), at a civil construction company in Curitiba’s city, state of Parana, in order to reduce the Accident Prevention Factor – FAP. First, we performed an initial diagnosis of Hygiene, Health and Safety at Work Environment’s conditions. Then, it was formulated and implemented the SG-HSSMAT, based on three axes: Compliance with Legislation, Safe Practices and Safety Inspections. The performance measuring of SG-HSSMAT was produced according to the result of nine evaluations made quarterly. Those evaluations were based on the Regulatory Norm No. 18 (NR-18) - Conditions and Work Environment in the Construction Industry- and also on the information provided annually by the Social Security Institute concerning the Accident Prevention Factor (FAP). During the research period from January 2009 to September 2011-, the company where this project was implemented had a significant improvement on its evaluations of Hygiene, Health and Safety at Work Environment, and also a 50% (fifty percent) reduction of the Accident Prevention Factor. Additionally, the implementation of the SG-HSSMAT has provided to this company a more pleasant place to work and has also provided the employees better working conditions. Therefore, the research project may be used by other companies and can be useful for the contemporary society.
