Abstract(s)
Num mundo em constante transformação, caracterizado pelo incremento da procura de bens e pela necessidade de adotar práticas de produção sustentáveis, emerge a indústria 4.0 [I4.0] definida pela automação e digitalização dos processos.
Como evolução natural, Coelho et al. (2022) introduzem o conceito de Indústria 5.0 [I5.0], marcando a transição para uma nova fase que enfatiza a centralidade do ser humano na inovação industrial, refletindo as aspirações da União Europeia [EU] para o futuro da indústria. Este cenário apresenta desafios significativos na área da segurança e saúde no trabalho [SST], exigindo novas abordagens.
O presente estudo de caso aclara como a Corticeira Amorim enfrenta esses desafios, através de uma parceria estratégica com a UAlg, reconhecida pela sua competência científica e técnica e pelo seu compromisso com o desenvolvimento social. Realizado numa unidade industrial em Silves, distrito de Faro, o estudo focou-se na identificação, avaliação e mitigação dos riscos inerentes ao processo produtivo.
A investigação iniciou pela análise das metodologias de gestão dos riscos de SST existentes. Concluiu-se pela inadequação dos métodos qualitativos para os objetivos propostos, dada a sua limitação em abordar a complexidade dos riscos adequadamente. Similarmente, os métodos quantitativos foram preteridos devido à sua complexidade, custos e limitações temporais.
Assim, adotou-se a Metodologia de Avaliação de Riscos e Acidentes de Trabalho [M.A.R.A.T.], um método simplificado já incorporado nas práticas da empresa com outra designação. O estudo adotou uma abordagem semiquantitativa e transversal, incluindo uma amostra de 31 colaboradores.
As conclusões destacam a crescente complexidade nos ambientes industriais e a urgência de implementar estratégias concentradas nas áreas críticas. É fundamental a aceitação e adesão dos trabalhadores às novas práticas, face aos desafios e oportunidades que emergem da interação entre homem e máquina, enfatizando a importância de as organizações adotarem uma postura proativa.
In a world in constant transformation, characterised by increased demand for goods and the need to adopt sustainable production practices, Industry 4.0 [I4.0] emerges, defined by the automation and digitalization of processes. As a natural evolution, Coelho et al. (2022) introduce the concept of Industry 5.0 [I5.0], marking the transition to a new phase that emphasizes the centrality of human beings in the industrial innovation, reflecting the aspirations of the European Union [EU] for the future of the industry. This scenario presents significant challenges in the area of occupational health and safety [OHS], requiring new approaches. This case study sheds light on how Corticeira Amorim is meeting these challenges, through a strategic partnership with UAlg, recognized for its scientific and technical expertise and its commitment to social development. Conducted at an industrial unit in Silves, in the district of Faro, the study focused on the identification, assessement, and mitigation of the risks inherent in the production process. The research began by analyzing the existing OHS risk management methodologies. It was concluded that qualitative methods were inadequate for the proposed objectives, given their limitations in adequately addressing the complexity of the risks. Similarly, quantitative methods were disregarded due to their complexity, costs, and temporal limitations. Thus, the Methodology for the Assessment of Risks and Workplace Accidents [M.A.R.A.T.], was adopted, a simplified method already incorporated into the company's practices under another designation. The study adopted a semiquantitative and cross-sectional approach, including a sample of 31 employees. The conclusions highlight the growing complexity in industrial environments and the urgency of implementing strategies focused on critical areas. Worker’s acceptance and adherence to new practices is essential, given the challenges and opportunities that emerge from the interaction between man and machine, emphasizing the importance of organizations adopting a proactive stance.
