Resumen
The construction of infrastructure projects, involves a series of risks, for its own employees and subcontractors, some of these risks cannot be avoided, so it is necessary to deploy engineering control measures as priority, administrative measures, and as a last alternative, regulating the use of personal protective equipment, obviously, these measures entail costs which affect the outcome of the project.
Through the present, proposes a methodology through the application of simple arrays to identify and calculate the costs of work-related accidents, which can be used in construction projects. As specific objectives, we sought to: (i) systematize the identification of direct and indirect costs of work-related accidents, (ii) simplify the calculation of these costs; and, (iii) establish relations that allow to assess the incidence of such costs, with regard to the management of occupational health and safety of the project
Analyzed the costs of work accidents raised in the last two years, of a construction company (the same that has been identified as a contractor C1), in a project in the country (which was denominated as PH1), on which remained absolute confidentiality. On the basis of the analysis of data obtained, was designed the methodology for achieving the proposed objectives, the interest is based on the fact that there are no practical methodologies and recognized in order to achieve this objective of assessing the incidence of the costs of accidents in the management of security, that complies with legal guidelines, in force in Ecuador.
