Abstract

The high rates of accidents and occupational diseases presented in companies both in Spain and Colombia, have identified the importance of analyzing and evaluating occupational risks. Therefore, it is necessary to define preventive actions for the company A&C Soluciones Civiles S.A.S. in order to ensure the welfare in the health of workers, by identifying the hazards based on the specialties of Safety and Industrial Hygiene; the method used for the evaluation of hygienic risks generated by exposure to physical risk was based on the method of William T. Fine in conjunction with the use of Integrator Sonometer equipment as an instrument of environmental measurement for noise. The risk analysis begins with the recognition of the work area that is directly exposed to the risk in order to establish preventive measures, time and costs for the execution of actions to reduce risks and hazards, focused on the continuous improvement of the processes
