Evaluación de las condiciones ambientales de temperatura y su incidencia en la salud laboral de los trabajadores en los procesos productivos de la empresa NEVADO- ECUADOR en el año 2013. Diseño de una propuesta de intervencion.

NEVADO - ECUADOR is a company dedicated to the rose’s production and exports; it is located at Mulalillo parish, Salcedo Canton, Cotopaxi Province, it processes and jobs involving all hazards. To control physical hazards assessment was performed, determining exposure limits and low temperatures. To identify and evaluate physical hazards, observation, is reflected in the corresponding risk map, once identified it was assessed by applying ISO 2254-1995 standard, assessing the maximum permissible exposure limits in posts, cold and heat job taking by workers in their task. At Risk analysis the WBGT environmental conditions of temperature was identified, by exposure to hot and cold temperature in different production processes work at Nevado Ecuador flower company, it is outside the specified permissible limits in standard and health alterations in workers' was determined by exposure to environmental temperature conditions in the different production processes of the flower business, the main risk factors for the disease produced are Faringoamigda, BactAgud with 21.1 % , Sd. Influenza with 10.5 %, 9.2% Viral Pharyngitis, Neumoniacon 2.6%, OMA with 5.3%, bacterial pharyngitis with 51.3 %. Evaluated the physical hazards the health damages are identified and from this perspective and defining the preventive and protective measures will be applied. On the environmental conditions of temperature work recommendations are shown, since the work in the different production processes involve first optimize environmental conditions and later risk analysis. To prevent the identified evaluated physical risks will cause harm health, a designing of a prevention system will be given, where a number of techniques, procedures, and rules Safety tips are determined to perform activities without being exposed to the risks.
