“…Guimarães et al (2018) measured the variables thermal comfort, wind speed, illuminance and noise for a factory of production of forest tools with wood handles, and concluded that the activity occurred in thermal discomfort in the afternoon shift, with wind speeds below 0.75 m/s, poor illuminance and noise, medium, above what is tolerated for an eight-hour workday and without hearing protection. A simple and inexpensive way to prevent accidents at work without reducing productivity is to issue personal protective equipament (PPE) to employees, while also reinforcing safety during operation (HEGEDUS et al, 2011).…”

Wood product manufacturing involves many dangerous activities and a high incidence of work-related accidents. The objective of this study was to analyze registered and unregistered work accidents, as well as the most frequent type and rate increase over the years for different activities of wood product manufacture in Brazil. Total accidents were counted including both unregistered and registered accidents. The accidents were classified as either a typical accident, a commuting accident or occupational diseases. Evaluated production was subdivided into sawmill operations, manufacture of laminated wood and plywood, wood-derived pressed and agglomerated sheets, and furniture with a predominance of wood. Wood production presented 2,849,470 direct jobs. For the furniture manufacturing sub-sector, there was an increase in the growth rate for direct jobs. However, there was a greater number of total accidents and an increase in the rate of number of accidents over time. For sawmills and the manufacture of laminated wood and slabs, there was a decreasing trend in the rate of direct jobs and accidents. Of the total number of accidents, more than 20% were not reported. The primary accident incidence was the typical accident (88.3%), followed by commuting accidents (9.5%) and lastly occupational diseases (2.1%).

“…In this sense, Hegedus et al (2011) states that accidents that lead to amputation of limbs such as fingers, arms and hands occur mainly due to the use of cutting machines and that in 2001, the segments of sawmills and joinery were responsible for 15% of all cases of amputations in work environments.…”

As atividades de carpintaria e serralharia são fortemente marcadas pelo uso de ferramentas antigas e trabalhadores não qualificados, o que contribui para a ocorrência de acidentes e outros riscos ocupacionais. Através destas discussões, este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar os acidentes ambientais e riscos ergonômicos em uma oficina de carpintaria localizada na cidade de Pau dos Ferros / RN. Assim, o objetivo foi quantificar a exposição ao ruído, medir os valores de temperatura ambiente e umidade, bem como os valores de iluminação ambiente. Para tanto, foram realizadas medições ambientais, bem como registros fotográficos e entrevistas com os responsáveis pelo estabelecimento. De acordo com a pesquisa realizada, nota-se que uma série de aspectos contribuem para o estabelecimento estudado apresentar condições insalubres. Entre os pontos a serem citados, a iluminação, Bem como a temperatura ea produção de ruído são os fatores mais marcantes. Além desses aspectos, a desorganização é também uma problemática presente neste ambiente de trabalho, uma vez que os resíduos não são devidamente descartados e as matérias-primas são amontoadas em meio a detritos e equipamentos. Outro ponto a ser citado é o uso de EPI, o que não ocorre devido à recusa dos empregados.

“…No contexto deste estudo, destacaram-se as serras como o principal agente causador das lesões; as fraturas prevaleceram como o tipo de lesão mais comum; e o membro mais acometido foram os dedos. Hegedus et al (2011), em seu estudo constatou que as lesões permanentes decorrentes de acidente ocorriam com dois tipos de máquinas de serras: circular e destopadeira, utilizadas no processo de desdobro e processamento de madeira, para isso levantou as empresas que processavam madeira na região e quantificou os números de acidentes de trabalho com suas consequências e impactos, buscando a compreensão do processo do cenário do acidente, na tentativa de propor soluções simples de prevenção e proteção nas operações, sem que com isso ocorresse a diminuição ou perda da produção, e ainda melhorar a segurança do trabalho, nessas empresas de madeira. Souza et al (2008) apontaram que o lado esquerdo foi acometido em 55% dos casos de lesão de mão.…”

INTRODUCTION: Serious occupational accidents occurred even before Industrial Revolution and were intensified after it, becoming a growing target of studies and analysis of many professionals of the area and researchers, since they entail and add up to damages for the worker, his family, the company and the society. By having knowledge of the dynamics of these events and based on the statistics and official notification record sheets, it's possible to develop action plans and goals for its reduction and neutralization, as well as to restructure public policies aimed exclusively at this group of workers, especially those in the informal economy, who have always been on the margins of welfare and social security benefits. OBJECTIVE: Identify serious work accidents involving upper extremity within the area covered by the Reference Center on Occupational Health of Uberlandia-MG. METHODOLOGY: Secondary data were collected from two records: the first one was the compulsory registry sheet of serious accidents and the second was the complementary sheet. RESULTS: A total of 370 registry record sheets was analyzed. Accidents were mainly observed in men, married and with low level of schooling. The construction and carpentry workers were the most affected. The situation characterization evidenced that the accidents occurred at the end of the workday, with peaks at the end of the morning, but more evidenced at the end of the afternoon. There was a reduction in workplace accidents in the period that coincides with school vacation. Most workers did not use personal protective equipment and they had not been trained, and road accidents were not of greater relevance. The Communication of Occupational Accidents occurred in less than a third of the accidents. Saw blades were the main cause of accidents, causing fractures in more than half of the cases and affecting mainly fingers and hands. CONCLUSION: Finger injuries were the accidents that presented greater occurrence, mainly with workers from the informal economy sector. Besides, the lack of technical capacitation and training of these workers is also another factor that must be reviewed to develop and consolidate public policies, aiming to fill this gap that still perpetuates in working environments in Brazil.
