| Abstract | CAMBRAIA, F. B. Gestão integrada entre segurança e produção: aperfeiçoamentos em um modelo de planejamento e controle. 2004. Dissertação de Mestrado (Mestrado em Engenharia Civil) –Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Civil, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, 2004. Safety planning and control (SPC) is frequently presented as one of the main requirements in regulatory norms and safety management systems. However, some of the limitations in terms of conception and implementation have been identified in these plans. When SPC and production planning and control (PPC) are understood as processes of the same nature, integrating SPC to PPC can contribute to enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of both processes. From this supposition, a SPC model integrated to PPC was designed from empirical studies developed in industrial construction sites, in which the final client had strict safety demands. In spite of the satisfactory results obtained initially, the need for refinement in the model's elements, through its implementation in new construction contexts, was identified. Therefore, this study proposes refinements in the SPC model's practices and tools, as well as a better understanding of its principles, through the development of empirical studies in a new construction context. In this sense, two sequential studies were developed in a project, where the main characteristic was the final client's small level of demand related to safety. In the first investigation, an exploratory case study was carried out and was a preparation for the second study, which adopted action research as its research strategy. With the first study, the level of use of the model's elements in the investigated company was identified. In the action research phase, the model was implemented in a new context and new practices and tools were tested. Since safety planning is done in three hierarchical levels, the main results regard a better comprehension of the decisions made in each level and, specifically, in the development of a system for the fulfillment of daily safety plans and the definition of directives for the development of formal studies for carrying out processes considered of high risk. The safety performance evaluation indicators proposed by the model were refined, mainly through a more intense involvement of the workers in the data collection process. Moreover, a pro-active system was developed for the evaluation of subcontractors with their participation during the evaluation. |
