Abstract(s)
Risk assessment is one of the main pillars of the framework directive
and other directives in respect of health and safety. It is also the basis
of an effective management of safety and health as it is essential to
reduce work-related accidents and occupational diseases. To survey
the hazards eventually present in the workplaces the usual
procedures are i) gathering information about tasks/activities,
employees, equipment, legislation and standards; ii) observation of
the tasks and; iii) quantification of respective risks through the most
adequate risk assessment among the methodologies available. From
this preliminary evaluation of a welding plant and, from the different
measurable parameters, noise was considered the most critical.
This paper focus not only the usual way of risk assessment for noise
but also another approach that may allow us to identify the technique
with which a weld is being performed.
