This study proposes the identification, evaluation and control of occupational hazards recommendations found in water pumping stations. Visits were held at the premises chosen as an object of study, then the agents and the risks have been identified, evaluated and classified into grades ranging from "irrelevant", "significant", "attention", "critical" and "emergency "and finally were proposed treatment measures to control, minimize and eliminate risks. The data were obtained in 10 Water Pumping Stations. Subsequently, the identified risks, electric shock, fall, bite of poisonous animals, pinch point, traffic accidents and improper posture were evaluated and classified according to the degree of risk. Was concludes that the activities performed in the study sites, as well as the environments themselves, generate safety risks to workers.
