Physical and mechanical risks were identified, using a checklist. The physical risks found were: noise, light, temperature and humidity, on the other hand, the mechanical risks were the following: obstacles on the floor, disorder, reduced physical space and handling of short-pointed tools. After identifying the risks, the estimation of their levels was carried out, based on the probability of occurrence, severity of the damage and vulnerability, obtaining as a result that temperature and humidity represent the most important risks, while obstacles on the floor reached the highest weight.
