Resumo: | Introduction: In order to ensure the safety and health of the worker, Brazilian labor law provides for the mandatory use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Objective: This study aimed to analyze the reasons for non-adherence to PPE and to assess the level of knowledge about the importance of its use by food handlers in a Food and Nutrition Unit. Material and Methods: Cross-sectional study carried out at a Food and Nutrition Unit (UAN), in the city of Juiz de Fora, Brazil. A self-administered questionnaire was used containing questions about the frequency of use and reasons for not using PPE, and assessment of knowledge about its importance. The data were described through the distribution of absolute and relative frequencies. Results: 93 manipulators - sector leaders and nutritionists, cooks, dispatch assistants, cold chamber assistants, stockists, pre-preparation assistants, butchers and kitchen assistants participated in the research. The most used equipment was PVC boots, safety shoes, disposable cap and nappa apron. For the use of a disposable glove, 100% of the shipping assistants say they do not use it. On the steel mesh glove, 50% of butchers use it sometimes. Only cooks say they use goggles, 83.33% say they always use them and 16.67% say they use them sometimes. Regarding the importance of using PPE, everyone recognizes the need for use. Conclusion: The food handlers of the unit are aware of the importance of using the equipment. However, there is a lag in relation to its use, diagnosing the need for training on the purpose of each PPE and the correct form of use, to ensure quality in the work environment and the safety of handlers, minimizing the risk of occurrence of hazards and preserving their physical integrity. |

Objetivo: Esse trabalho objetivou analisar as razões de não adesão aos EPIs e avaliar o nível de conhecimento sobre a importância do seu uso por manipuladores de alimentos de uma Unidade de Alimentação e Nutrição. Material e Métodos: Estudo transversal realizado na matriz de uma Unidade de Alimentação e Nutrição (UAN), na cidade de Juiz de Fora, Brasil. Utilizou-se um questionário auto administrado contendo perguntas sobre a frequência de utilização e motivos para não utilização de EPIs, e avaliação do conhecimento sobre sua importância. Os dados foram descritos por meio da distribuição de frequências absolutas e relativas. Resultados: Participaram da pesquisa 93 manipuladores - líderes de setores e nutricionistas, cozinheiros, auxiliares de expedição, auxiliares de câmara fria, estoquistas, auxiliares de pré-preparo, açougueiros e auxiliares de cozinha. Os equipamentos mais utilizados foram bota de PVC, sapato de segurança, touca descartável e avental de napa. Para o uso de luva descartável, 100% dos auxiliares de expedição dizem não utilizá-la. Sobre a luva de malha de aço, 50% dos açougueiros utilizar às vezes. Apenas cozinheiros dizem utilizar óculos de proteção, 83,33% dizem sempre utilizar e 16,67% dizem utilizar às vezes. Sobre a importância de utilização de EPIs, todos reconhecem a necessidade de utilização. Conclusão: Os manipuladores de alimentos da unidade são conscientes sobre a importância da utilização dos equipamentos. Entretanto, há defasagem em relação a sua utilização, diagnosticando-se a necessidade de capacitação sobre a finalidade de cada EPI e a forma correta de utilização, para garantir a qualidade no ambiente de trabalho e a segurança dos manipuladores, minimizando o risco de ocorrência dos perigos e preservando a integridade física dos mesmos.Editora UFJF2020-11-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtOrapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/hurevista/article/view/3017510.34019/1982-8047.2020.v46.30175HU Revista; v. 46 (2020); 1-81982-80470103-3123reponame:HU Revista (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)instacron:UFJFporhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/hurevista/article/view/30175/21500Copyright (c) 2020 Rebeca Galhardo Tiburcio, Daniel Inácio Peixoto Domingues de Azevedo, Bruna Laiza Silva Marinho, Mirella Lima Binotiinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGalhardo Tiburcio, Rebeca Peixoto Domingues de Azevedo, Daniel Inácio Silva Marinho, Bruna Laiza Binoti, Mirella Lima2020-11-20T19:38:28Zoai:periodicos.ufjf.br:article/30175Revistahttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/hurevistaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/hurevista/oairevista.hurevista@ufjf.edu.br1982-80470103-3123opendoar:2020-11-20T19:38:28HU Revista (Online) - Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)false |
