CASE SAFETY AT WORK
Once upon a time there was a man, named Pedro, who was part of an
associate work cooperative supposedly as a cooperative. By virtue of
this quality, I have cut corozo for a company dedicated to the Las
Palmas industry.

Pedro kept a schedule, received instructions from the company

dedicated to the Las Palmas industry, was not affiliated with health,
Pensions or ARL, and also did not use any element of personal
protection, despite the fact that his work required it.

One day Pedro was cutting corozo as usual and received an electric
shock, which caused burns throughout his second and third degree
body. Consequently Pedro had a loss of 70% work capacity and many
difficulties in his family environment, since he could no longer work
and provide a livelihood for his children or his wife. In addition, Mr.
Pedro suffered from deep depression for not being able to continue
with his normal life.
 SOLUTION
This occupational accident and these burns will not happen if Pedro
prior to performing his corozo cutting functions:

 will receive an induction about the risk to which he will be exposed

 Pedro will be properly trained for his tasks and he will be provided
its personal protection´s elements.

 In addition, the personnel in charge daily with a checklist. They will

verified that all workers have the safety equipment and demand
that they comply with all the safety requirements at work.
