Resumo: The extraction of non-timber forest products in the Amazon is an activity that exposes workers to environmental risks that can affect their health and safety at work. The aim of this study was to identify the environmental risks and the psychophysiological and physical impacts of the collection of the açaizeiro fruit on workers in eastern Amazon. The study was carried out by applying semi-open questionnaires and structured interviews based on protocols of the Ergolândia version 6.0 software to 33 collectors in Ilha do Combú, Belém, Pará state. The physical risks identified were: ultraviolet radiation (12 h of sunlight), average annual relative humidity of 71.9% and heat with IBUTG of 24.4ºC. The fear of falling down from the açaizeiro tree, venomous animals, height and the high physical effort required to climb the palm tree were the main difficulties pointed out by extractivists. The risks of accidents were identified: snake, maribondo, scorpion, spider, açaizeiro fall, cuts, scratches and muscular torsion. The cargo transported by the 30 kg collectors meets the requirements of current legislation. The parts of the body

The parts of the bodyO extrativismo de produtos florestais não madeireiros na Amazônia é uma atividade que expõe o trabalhador a riscos ambientais que podem afetar sua saúde e sua segurança no trabalho. O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar os riscos ambientais e os impactos psicofisiológicos e físicos da coleta do fruto do açaizeiro no trabalhador da Amazônia Oriental. O Estudo foi realizado pela aplicação de questionários semiabertos e entrevistas estruturadas baseadas a partir de protocolos do software Ergolândia versão 6.0 a 33 coletores na Ilha do Combú, Belém/PA. Os riscos físicos identificados foram: radiação ultravioleta (12 h de sol), umidade relativa média anual de 71,9% e calor com IBUTG de 24,4ºC. O medo da queda do açaizeiro, animais peçonhentos, altura e o alto esforço físico requerido para escalar a palmeira foram as principais dificuldades apontadas pelos extrativistas. Foram identificados os riscos de acidentes: cobra, maribondo, escorpião, aranha, queda do açaizeiro, cortes, arranhões e torção muscular. A carga de 30 quilos, transportada pelos coletores, atende ao estabelecido pela legislação vigente. As partes do corpo que os extrativistas sentem dores com frequência durante e após a atividade foram: a parte inferior das costas, pés e dedos, mãos e dedos, membros superiores, ombro, punho, trapézio, cabeça e peito, pescoço, antebraço, cotovelo, panturrilha, tornozelo e joelho. O protocolo de Moore e Garg classificou a atividade como de alto risco para o desenvolvimento de doenças ocupacionais com Strain Index de 13,5 e 10,12 na safra e entressafra, respectivamente, e o protocolo de Lehmann como um trabalho fatigante. A OWAS indicou a categoria de ação 4 com adoção de correções imediatas na postura da coluna, membros superiores e pernas dos extrativistas.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2022-06-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmltext/xmlhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaflorestal/article/view/4279010.5902/1980509842790Ciência Florestal; Vol. 32 No. 2 (2022); 597-616Ciência Florestal; v. 32 n. 2 (2022); 597-6161980-50980103-9954reponame:Ciência Florestal (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaflorestal/article/view/42790/47521https://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaflorestal/article/view/42790/48328https://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaflorestal/article/view/42790/50733Copyright (c) 2022 Ciência Florestalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMoura, Vandeilson Belfort Farias, Vivian Dielly da Silva Sousa, Denis de Pinho Nunes, Hildo Giuseppe Garcia Caldas Souza, Paulo Jorge de Oliveira Ponte de 2022-12-15T01:56:05Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/42790Revistahttp://www.ufsm.br/cienciaflorestal/ONGhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.php||cienciaflorestal@ufsm.br|| cienciaflorestal@gmail.com|| cf@smail.ufsm.br1980-50980103-9954opendoar:2022-12-15T01:56:05Ciência Florestal (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false
