The diploma thesis focuses on risk assessment in the area of occupational health and safety, specifically on the risks in the implementation of 3D printing into the production process. The introductory part of the work introduces theoretical background in the area of occupational health and safety, together with the knowledge of 3D printing and methods for identification and risk management. In the following part, the identification, analysis and assessment of risks is carried out on a concrete example. Appropriate measures for their minimization, including financial evaluation, are proposed for the assessed risks.

Master's thesis is focused on work conditions area in selected company, especially on occupational health and safety. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze work conditions, which are in the company nowadays, and to create suggestion, which should lead to the correction of eventual gaps.

La Seguridad y Salud en el Trabajo es una disciplina cuyo desarrollo normativo en el Perú inició hace menos de dos décadas. Pese a ello, en la actualidad representa uno de los temas más relevantes que los empleadores consideran al momento de organizar su actividad empresarial. Esto se debe a que la Ley 29783 les establece obligaciones a cumplir frente a sus trabajadores, para garantizar la protección adecuada. Asimismo, dicha norma alberga en su artículo 53 la disposición sobre la procedencia de la responsabilidad civil del empleador ante el incumplimiento del deber de seguridad. Su contenido es insuficiente en cuanto a la referencia del factor de atribución aplicable. Por ello, los pronunciamientos judiciales sobre indemnización por accidentes de trabajo se han caracterizado por no ser uniformes en cuanto a dicho criterio. Con el objeto de finalizar esta incertidumbre, a partir del 2017 los jueces Supremos han utilizado instituciones procesales para manifestar que la interpretación correcta de la norma es, que el empleador resulta responsable por cualquier evento dañoso del trabajador. Ello significó el establecimiento oficial del modelo atributivo objetivo, pese a que la normativa del Código Civil dispone que en los casos de responsabilidad por inejecución de obligaciones aplica el subjetivo. Al respecto, la presente investigación pretende identificar el factor de atribución idóneo para el caso de la responsabilidad civil del empleador por accidentes de trabajo, a la luz del régimen de Seguridad y Salud en el Trabajo. / Occupational Health and Safety is a discipline which regulatory development began in Peru less than two decades ago. Despite this, it currently represents one of the most relevant issues that employers consider when organizing their business activity. This is due to the fact that Law 29783 establishes obligations for them to meet their workers, in order to guarantee adequate protection. Likewise, the mentioned norm contains in its article 53 the disposition on the origin of the civil responsibility of the employer before the breach of its duty of security. Its content is insufficient as regards to the reference of the applicable attribution factor. Therefore, judicial pronouncements on compensation for work-related accidents have been characterized as not being uniform in regard to this criterion. In order to end this uncertainty, as of 2017 the Supreme Judges have used procedural institutions to state that the correct interpretation of the rule is that the employer is responsible for any harmful event of the worker. This meant the official establishment of the objective attributive model, although the regulations of the Civil Code provide that in the cases of liability for non-performance of obligations the subjective applies. In this regard, the present investigation intends to identify the appropriate attribution factor in the case of the employer's civil responsibility for accidents at work, in the light of the Occupational Health and Safety regime. / Tesis

This thesis aims to evaluate the implementation of digital tools in terms of worker and manager experiences and perceptions at Stora Enso Packaging Solutions with respect to safety and where the opportunities for improvement are for these technologies to enhance the workplace safety through an external vantage point. The goal is to identify factors at the design and implementation phase of the digital tools and provide suggestions on improvements. The rapid ascent of digitalization in the workplace poses both remarkable opportunities and considerable challenges, particularly in the realm of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH). This study, entitled "Digitalization and Safety," performs a thematic analysis of the current digital operational safety framework within Stora Enso, focusing on the impacts of digitalization on safety measures by. By synthesizing extensive literature reviews with primary data collection methods, this research investigates common OSH challenges related to digitalization and evaluates the feasibility of integrating digital solutions to mitigate associated risks. The thesis covers three mills across three countries and involves the conducting of interviews with safety managers, production engineers, worksite employees, and also at the managerial level with business unit heads. The data is also collected via an anonymous survey regarding the safety work providing a holistic perspective of administrative and production sectors of the company. The data collected is analyzed using thematic analysis to generate various themes. A total of 25 themes were generated. Simultaneously, using the literature available, two theories are selected which are Human Factors Theory and Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology. The thematic analysis was conducted in a hybrid way, taking a stand in the deductive thematic analysis where the themes were based on the pillars of selected theories but completed with an inductive analysis where a total of 29 factors were found inductively. Findings reveal that while digital tools offer a potential paradigm shift in OSH management, their design and implementation require more attention for the seamless integration of digital tools that can enhance OSH measures without compromising human factors. These range from questions of data validity and generalizability to ethical and logistical concerns. The study concludes by offering multi-faceted recommendations, emphasizing the need for an interdisciplinary approach that puts humans at the center of this digital transformation. Delimitations of the study are also outlined, providing a transparent and nuanced lens through which the research should be interpreted. This study serves as a cornerstone for organizations navigating the intricate landscape of digitalization in OSH, offering both academic scholars and industry professionals an investigative analysis that bridges existing research gaps. It also lays the groundwork for future studies aimed at further unraveling the complexities of integrating digital tools in occupational safety and health environments.

Thesis (MPAM.) -- University of Limpopo, 2021 / The study explored the impact of Labour inspection and enforcement strategy on Occupational Health and Safety with specific reference to Tzaneen Labour Centre in the Limpopo Province. The international Labour Organisation (ILO) 2017 world statistics indicate that 2.3 million women and men around the world succumb to work-related accidents or diseases every year and this corresponds to over 6 000 deaths every single day. The Department of Labour (DOL) Annual Reports (2007) indicates that in the Province of Limpopo, 1 717 workplaces were inspected to determine compliance with Occupational Health and Safety and only 825 were found to be compliant. Literature indicate that most accidents and fatalities at the workplace are primarily due to reluctance by employers to provide safety clothing and equipment, lack of proper training on OHS, lack of safety policy and enforcement procedures, poor safety consciousness among workers and lack of strict operational procedures amongst others. A qualitative approach was used to conduct this study and a case study was selected as the most direct method to conduct the study and obtain insight. Interviews were conducted with DOL managers, OHS inspectors and farm employers. Questionnaires were administered to farmworkers. The study revealed that there are few OHS inspectors at the Tzaneen Labour centre hence inspections are very minimal at the farms, this can assist in increasing number of places to be inspected and enforcing compliance. Findings also indicate that most farm employees are not cognisant with the OHS policies enacted to protect them and OHS records non-existent on many farms. The study recommends further rigorous training of the OHS inspectors, beefing up their numbers and equipping them with safety clothing and detection gadgets
