ANÁLISIS Y EVALUACIÓN DE RIESGOS EN LA DISTRIBUCIÓN DE CILINDROS DE GAS LICUADO DE PETRÓLEO DE 15 kg PARA USO DOMÉSTICO: CASO DE ESTUDIO – DEPÓSITO MARIANA
(2022-03-18) Vidal Apolo, Rodrigo Alejandro; Barragán Landy, Milton Francisco
The sale and distribution of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) cylinder tanks poses a danger to the workers who carry out these tasks, many of whom do so without awareness of the risks to which they are exposed. The objective of this study is to analyze and evaluate the ergonomic, psychosocial, and fire risks to which LPG tank delivery workers are exposed and recommend preventive measures to increase their well-being and quality of life. An inductive-quantitative method was applied to a sample made up of three LPS tank workers. The methodology used to evaluate the three risks was the Manual Handling Assessment (MHA) method for ergonomic risk, the Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire (CoPsoQ PSQCAT) method for psychosocial risk, and the MESERI method for fire risk. The main results from applying each method showed: high action categories where corrective actions were required for ergonomic risk; three unfavorable situations including work rhythm, justice, and leadership quality affected workers in the psychosocial risk area; and an acceptable fire risk level for the warehouse according to the MESERI method, which even if true could be improved. Finally, we emphasize the need to update the health and safety regulations for workers (IESS Executive Decree 2393), which are not currently in accordance with international organizations and allow for ambiguity potentially resulting in unfavorable situations for workers

This thesis arises from businesses' need to generate new products with higher perceived value and innovation for customers and that are feasible to produce on an industrial scale at a relatively low cost. The following project has been developed in CERAMICA ANDINA S.A., where the idea of creating a new production line of two-toned mugs was implemented so that the product would be of high perceived value, economically competitive, and profitable in the present and future. The idea is not only to generate profits for the company, but also to keep innovation at a competitive level so that the company can maintain its market share. This project describes the current situation of the company, develops creative and creative ideas regarding the innovative process, takes a comprehensive factorial design in which the proposal is developed and optimized, using tools such as flowcharts in order to interpret processes, more easily and evaluates the proposal in order to determine its feasibility.
