Avaliação das condições de saúde e segurança do trabalho em empresas de pequeno porte de construção civil da cidade de Fortaleza – CE

Abstract

The prevention of accidents in works is a matter of paramount importance in the field of civil construction, either in remote times or in the current days of society, since simple attitudes are prerequisites for individual and collective security of the individuals who act directly and indirectly in the work. The care and attention must be daily premises, making such attitudes become habitual habits and that come to be practiced as something common and natural by all that make the work to happen. Workers in the construction industry should be educated with policies and attitudes that cherish the physical well-being of each one, since this is a subjective right of every citizen. In this way, the purpose of this study is to analyze small, medium and large companies regarding the prevention of accidents at their construction site. Where it was concluded that small and medium-sized companies were not effective in the prevention of accidents in the city of Fortaleza-Ce. Already large companies had a complete team of safety engineer, work safety technician and civil engineer who provided more significant and comprehensive support for training and inspection, causing the risk of accidents to decrease significantly.
