Análisis del peligro ergonómico para el trabajo de oficina usando el método Rosa

Abstract

This thesis analyzes the ergonomic risks in the office workstations of professors at Uniagustiniana in Bogotá using the ROSA method. This method helps evaluate the ergonomic posture, furniture, and work environment required based on the type of furniture used and how it affects professors during their work hours. With a sample of 15 professors, surveys and photographs were used to identify musculoskeletal symptoms such as neck, back, and shoulder pain. The study concluded that the lack of adjustable furniture and a lack of ergonomic knowledge negatively impact health and productivity, and generate institutional costs. It culminates in a strategic improvement proposal based on ergonomic adjustments and training in ergonomic postures.
