Abstract
El presente trabajo de grado busca identificar riesgos biomecánicos y sus consecuencias en trabajadores del sector de la confección tales como, túnel del carpo, epicondilitis, entre otros. Se destaca el crecimiento del mercado textil en Colombia y la dificultad de empresas en Bogotá y alrededores para cumplir con requerimientos normativos legales, lo que motiva la investigación en el municipio de Funza, lugar donde se encuentra el satélite objeto de estudio; De esta forma, se pretende evaluar los riesgos biomecánicos en el área de confección dejando como resultado una guía con recomendaciones para mitigar este riesgo.
Objetivo general. Generar una guía de apoyo para mitigar los riesgos biomecánicos a los que se encuentran expuestos los trabajadores de LINK S.A.S
La metodología cuantitativa, utilizada durante la investigación, se basa en la aplicación de variables y análisis estadístico para abordar un caso de estudio de manera detallada. Este enfoque permite responder a interrogantes planteados previamente siendo fundamental en la recolección de datos y la evaluación de carga postural mediante el método RULA.
Mediante la aplicación de este método de evaluación y como resultado final se genera una guía con recomendaciones para mejoramiento de puestos de trabajo haciendo focalización a la carga postural manejada en el área de confección y ángulos requeridos para esta tarea.
En conclusión, es importante tomar medidas preventivas para reducir estos riesgos biomecánicos, mejorar las condiciones laborales para garantizar un ambiente de trabajo seguro, saludable, implementar ajustes los ergonómicos y formar a los trabajadores en higiene postural es fundamental.
The purpose of this degree work is to identify both the biomechanical risks, as well as the consequences derived from this in the worker, causing in several cases, complex affections in upper limbs such as: carpal tunnel, epicondylitis, rotator cuff, tendinitis due to repetitive movements. and even by segmented and prolonged postures according to the initial activity, this being the confection. The clothing sector, according to the report issued by the Inexmoda Observatory, mentions that “The size of the textile market grew 5.8% in the first four months of the year, up to $9.9 billion” (2023), this being sector, the eighth segment with the highest consumption in the country (Portfolio Magazine, 2023). Due to this and identifying the market at the local level in the municipality of Funza, Cundinamarca, the viability between supply and demand is verified in terms of the broad requirements for the acquisition of security equipment for the industrial sector, since Several of the industries according to the POT (Territorial Planning Plan) of the city of Bogotá, make the difficult decision to move their companies to the outskirts of this city in order to contribute to environmental improvement. Due to the above, the idea arises of identifying biomechanical risks and assessing ergonomic risk factors through the evaluation of postural load (Rula) in the workplaces of the manufacturing satellite since they currently do not have a solid SG-SST that supports both its workers and its activity.
