HECHOS

  • Inicio Apresurado de la Tarea: Comenzar a trabajar sin una evaluación de riesgos aumenta la probabilidad de pasar por alto condiciones inseguras, fallas en el equipo o riesgos ambientales.
  • Cambios en las Condiciones de Trabajo: El clima, el tráfico, el estado del equipo y la disposición del lugar de trabajo pueden cambiar rápidamente, lo que hace que las evaluaciones anteriores queden desactualizadas.
  • Falta de Reconocimiento de Riesgos: Los trabajadores que se encuentran bajo presión de tiempo pueden enfocarse en completar la tarea en lugar de identificar los riesgos antes de comenzar a trabajar.
  • Fuentes de Energía no Controladas: Saltarse las evaluaciones puede hacer que los riesgos eléctricos, mecánicos, hidráulicos o de energía almacenada no se identifiquen ni se aíslen.
  • Decisiones Basadas en Suposiciones: Confiar en la familiaridad en lugar de evaluar las condiciones actuales aumenta la probabilidad de incidentes y cuasi accidentes.
  • Faltas de Comunicación: No discutir los peligros con los miembros del equipo puede dar lugar a una comprensión inconsistente de los riesgos y los controles.
  • Atajos bajo Presión: Los plazos ajustados a menudo animan a los trabajadores a saltarse las inspecciones y evaluaciones que podrían prevenir lesiones graves.
