O impacto da saúde e segurança na construção civil sua regulamentação e melhoria da qualidade de vida no ambiente de trabalho

Resumo

This article aims to investigate occupational health and safety management in the construction industry, addresses occupational safety issues, expands the research overview, provides a technical basis through case studies and academic articles, establishes guidelines between safety categories, constructability, performance in the execution of a construction project. The article highlights the search for the implementation of occupational health and safety (OSH) guidelines and measures, pointing out the PCMAT document as an object of legal conduct, specific to the activity of this sector. The objective of the study is to direct the most appropriate regulation to the management of procedures, health and safety at work, to point out the best practices applied to reducing accidents in the construction segment, to point out the improvement of quality of life in the work environment. The results were evaluated with a qualitative view regarding their compliance with the requirements specified in current standards, in order to contribute to the development of architecture, engineering, and precise decision-making with regard to occupational safety, expanding opportunities for future scientific research on the topic.
