Resumo: Currently, society faces difficulties to conciliate rampant development for modern life good production and environment preservation. One important issueis the inadequate destination of fluorescent bulbs. Because these bulbs contain heavy metalsin their composition, their inappropriate disposal represent risks to the environment and public health.This work aimed toevaluate handling, conditioning, disposal and final destination of fluorescent lamps (LF), as well as, the development of environmental responsibility in the employees responsible for these tasks.The methodology consisted of a literature review and data collection survey through the application of a questionnaire to the employees of a maintenance service provider of a Financial Institution in the Metropolitan area of the cities of São Paulo, Jundiaí­ and Campinas and the Baixada Santista region of the state of São Paulo. The highest loss rate of LFs occurs in theirinstallation and removal, due to inadequate handling, causing occupational and environmental hazards. In order totackle this issue, maintenance vehicles were adapted with horizontal platforms, providing an adequate working stand to manipulate LFs. Additionally, the authors developed a best practice handbook, describing the most effective ways to install and dispose of fluorescent bulbs, thusreducing accidents. Lately, the Financial Institution showed concern regarding the disposal of fluorescent bulbs. An emerging need for proven documents was also observed, testifying the correct final destination of the LFs by sellers. This demonstrates the importance of raising employee awareness of the hazards that inappropriate LF disposal can cause to the environment.

Um dos desafios é a destinação adequada das lâmpadas fluorescentes, que quando descartadas inadequadamente, podem acarretarda nos ao meio ambiente e à saúde pública. Principalmente, devido aos metais pesados presentes em sua composição. Este trabalho teve como objetivo um estudo sobre o manuseio, acondicionamento, descarte e destinação final de lâmpadas fluorescentes (LF) e o desenvolvimento de responsabilidade ambiental nos funcionários responsáveis por essas funções. A metodologia consistiu em levantamento bibliográfico e coleta de dados com a aplicação de um questionário aos funcionários de uma prestadora de serviços de manutenção para uma instituição financeira da região metropolitana da cidade de São Paulo, região de Jundiaí­ e Campinas e Baixada Santista do Estado de São Paulo. Identificou-se que o maior í­ndice de perda de LF ocorre na instalação devido o manuseio inadequado causando riscos de acidente ocupacional e ambiental. Visto isso, os veí­culos de manutenção foram adaptados com bancadas horizontais para melhor manipular os referidos materiais e elaborou-se ainda um manual de boas práticas de manejo para instalação e retirada das LF, a fim de evitar acidentes. Por fim, constatou-se a preocupação da instituição em relação ao descarte correto das lâmpadas fluorescentes. Observou-se uma necessidade emergente da comprovação, através de documentos, da destinação final correta das LF pelos locais de venda das mesmas. Isso demonstra a importância da conscientização dos funcionários quanto aos riscos que o descarte inapropriado de LF pode ocasionar ao meio ambiente.Atas de Saúde Ambiental - ASA (ISSN 2357-7614)2017-12-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/article/view/1476Atas de Saúde Ambiental - ASA (ISSN 2357-7614); v. 4 n. 1 (2016); 90-972357-7614reponame:Atas de Saúde Ambientalinstname:Faculdades Metropolitanas Unidas (FMU)instacron:FMUporhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/article/view/1476/1152Copyright (c) 2018 Gustavo dos Santos Ferreira, Andréia Maria Martarello Gonçalvesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFerreira, Gustavo dos SantosGonçalves, Andréia Maria Martarello2018-11-08T15:01:32Zoai:ojs.fmu.br:article/1476Revistahttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/indexPRIhttps://revistaseletronicas.fmu.br/index.php/ASA/oai||asa.revista@gmail.com2357-76142357-7614opendoar:2018-11-08T15:01:32Atas de Saúde Ambiental - Faculdades Metropolitanas Unidas (FMU)false
