Abstract

Numerous people suffered and are still suffering occupational accidents. They bring a lot of expenses for the workers, enterprises, families and even for the society. Thereby, the occupational safety along with some norms are very important for the civil construction. Working at height is one of the most dangerous services in the civil construction and great of the accidents are caused by negligence both by workers or by enterprises. Based on this, the NR 35 and other regulatory norms were sanctioned to govern workers and interprises regarding working at height and minimum protection measures. The NR 35 establishes minimum measures that should be followed aiming to ensure the quality of the services and the health of the workers. Therefore, the goal of this research is to analyze the applicability of the NR-35 as well as the complementary Norms and all their topics in a vertical civil construction. A checklist applied to the characteristics of NR 35 was designed and elaborated, which must be applied constantly to avoid and reduce accidents at work, reducing the amount of CAT (Communication of Accidents at Work). In this work, it was verified whether or not a company from Anápolis was carrying out activities at heights with the due determinations contained in the studied norms and indication of crucial points for the improvement of quality and safety at work, primarily avoiding accidents at work. The application of the checklist was followed along with the safety technique of the work under study and it was verified that the work at height was being organized, planned and executed safely. therefore, the guidelines described in the Standards are of paramount importance to prevent incidents and accidents. All employees must be trained before performing any function involving height and the training must be prepared and carried out by a trained professional in work safety. Most of the points addressed in the check list were verified as correctly applied and all those that were not in compliance were suggested for continuous improvement to avoid accidents involving height.
