Resumen
Planta Procesadora y Exportadora de Camarón PROCAMARONEX C. LTDA.
la que inicia su producción en la ciudad de Guayaquil Km 16 vía Daule en la
provincia del Guayas, tiene aproximadamente 3 años en el mercado, se dedica a la
exportación de camarón principalmente en mercados internacionales como China
y Europa, en su gran y continuo crecimiento actualmente consta con máquinas
semi automáticas en mejorar la calidad de clasificadora de camarón. El objetivo
del estudio es analizar los riesgos auditivos a los que están expuestos los
trabajadores principalmente del área operativa. La población participante fue de
168 trabajadores y para determinar de una forma cuantitativa del grado de
peligrosidad se utilizó una técnica de análisis de riesgos, llamado el METODO
IPER. Con los resultados de las evaluaciones de audiometría realizadas al grupo
de trabajadores se les diagnosticó hipoacusia, cuyo rango de edad pertenece a los
de 61 años en adelante con un 5% de afectividad, esto puesto a las largas jornadas
de trabajo y a la poca protección auditiva, y sumado a otras patologías que
desencadena la edad puesto que el personal con mayor incidencia en su gran
mayoría son adultos mayores (como pérdida progresiva de la audición). En la
industria camaronera los niveles de ruido son excesivos y perjudiciales para la
salud de los trabajadores.
This investigation was aimed at analyzing the noise factor and the hearing capacity at Shrimp Processing and Exporting Plant PROCAMARONEX CO LTD. which began its production in the city of Guayaquil. Km 16 via Daule in the province of Guayas. Said exporting Company has been in the market for approximately 3 years and is dedicated to the export of shrimp mainly in international markets such as China and Europe. In its great and continuous strive for growth It currently has semi-automatic machinery to improve the quality of the shrimp grader. The objective of the study is to analyze the hearing risks to which workers are exposed to, mainly in the operational area. The participating population was of 168 workers and to quantitatively determine the degree of danger, a risk analysis technique was used, called the IPER METHOD. With the results of the audiometric evaluations carried out on the group of workers, they were diagnosed with hearing loss, those whose ages ranged from 61 years of age and older had 5% affliction in their hearing , due to the long working hours and little to none hearing protection., and added to other pathological factors of the people in this age group, since the staff with the highest incidence are mostly older adults (such as progressive hearing loss). In the shrimp industry, noise levels are excessive and harmful to the health of workers.
