Reporte de Riesgos de Seguridad y Salud en Trabajadores Informales de Canteras de Ciudad Bolívar, Bogotá

Abstract:

Risk assessment for labour safety and health is a major endeavour, poorly addressed when it comes to informal labour in Colombia. Research in this matter faces multiple challenges taking into account that occupied informal workers represented 48.5% of total worker's population in Colombia [1]. The main objective of this paper is to try and establish a compilation between formal and informal quarry workers projects and papers in regard of labour safety and health risks along with a risk comparison based on GTC45 norm to both formal and informal worker's risk exposure, Through the development of a labour safety and health risk assessment document matrix; through case studies data gathering supported in document reviews and Safety and Health at work technical reports throughout University Indexed Colombian Journals for the past 3 years, hoping to develop an approached comparison in a Risk assessment document Matrix, thus setting a discussion around both results and methods, aiming to understand trends to address this issue.
