Diseño de un manual de seguridad y riesgo para los laboratorios de la Facultad de Ciencias bloque anterior (auditorio, bodega de materias y reactivos, bioterio, laboratorio de electromagnetismo y laboratorio de óptica)

Abstract

The present work was based on the elaboration of a Security and Risk Manual for the laboratories of the Science Faculty of the Previous Block ( Auditorium, Material and Reagents Warehouse, Biotherium, Electromagnetism Laboratory and Optics Laboratory) of the ESPOCH, the existing risk factors were identified through the threat and vulnerability evaluation matrix, Later, the protocols and corresponding procedures were carried out for the preparation of the response of the personnel and students in the event of an event that puts their integrity at risk, then a drill was planned to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed plan, thus avoiding accidents caused by anthropic events (explosions and fires) or natural events (earthquake, ash fall and volcanic eruption). Based on the procedures of the National Institute of Safety and Hygiene at Work for the evaluation of labor risks and the MESERI Method for the evaluation of fire risk. This manual has been prepared based on the regulation NTE INEN 3864-1 2013 for the implementation of signs of aid, prevention, obligation, information and prohibition; NFPA 10 standard for the installation of CO2 and PQS extinguishers, the maintenance of extinguishers 11 PQS and 1 CO2, the installation of alarms will be done by the Department of Maintenance of Physical Development and in the principles established by the Secretariat of Risk Management Zone 3 for earthquakes, fires and explosions. Finally, the Safety and Risk Manual for the laboratories of the Faculty of Sciences of the Previous Block (Auditorium, Material and Reagents Warehouse, Biotherium, Electromagnetism Laboratory and Optics Laboratory) was not fully implemented, so it is recommended to conclude it following what was exposed in the Integral Risk Management Plan.
