Abstract
El estudio investigó el uso de agroquímicos en la palmicultura y la exposición de los trabajadores al riesgo químico. Se propone diseñar un manual de prevención de riesgos químicos para pequeños productores de palma de aceite, que ayudaría a mitigar accidentes laborales y enfermedades en el sector palmicultor. El estudio utilizó un enfoque descriptivo cuantitativo para demostrar la necesidad de implementar estrategias de prevención de riesgos. Obteniendo como resultado la poca prevención que tienen los palmicultores en el manejo de sustancias agroquímicas por el desconocimiento de las consecuencias que pueden generar está en el cuerpo humano. Concluyendo que es necesario tomar medidas para reducir el riesgo químico y que el
manual podría contribuir a mejorar la calidad de vida.
The study investigated the use of agrochemicals in palm growing and the exposure of workers to chemical risk. It is proposed to design a chemical risk prevention manual for small oil palm producers, which would help mitigate occupational accidents and diseases in the palm sector. The study used a quantitative descriptive approach to demonstrate the need to implement risk prevention strategies. Obtaining as a result the little prevention that palm growers have in the management of agrochemical substances due to ignorance of the consequences that they can generate in the human body. Concluding that it is necessary to take measures to reduce the chemical risk and that the manual could contribute to improving the quality.
