Resumo: Este estudo analisa a exposição a riscos de Lesão Músculo-Esquelética Relacionada com o Trabalho (LMERT) e de Fadiga Laboral em trabalhadores de uma unidade fabril da Indústria de Mobiliário. Esta empresa é constituída por onze funcionários, tendo-se focado o estudo em oito trabalhadores afetos à área da produção. Foi-lhes aplicado o Questionário da Fadiga Laboral e Sintomatologia Músculo-Esquelética (Neto, 2013) e, a partir dos resultados, foram selecionados dois trabalhadores com sintomatologia músculo-esquelética mais incidente. Foram estudadas as posturas adotadas pelos mesmos durante a realização das tarefas, aplicando-se o método REBA naquelas posturas que revelavam maior disfuncionalidade anatomofisiológica. Os resultados mostram que os trabalhadores apresentam um nível moderado de falta de energia e um nível elevado de exposição ao risco de LMERT associado às posturas adotadas durante a realização das tarefas, razão pela qual foram propostas medidas de controlo para a mitigação dos riscos analisados.

The Questionnaire for Labour Fatigue and Musculoskeletal Symptomatology (Neto, 2013) was applied and, based on the results, two workers were selected with more incident musculoskeletal symptoms. It was studied the postures endowed by those workers during the tasks accomplishment, being applied the REBA method to the postures that reveal the greatest anatomical-physiological dysfunctionality. The results show that the workers present a moderate level of lack of energy and a high level of exposure to the risk of WRMSD associated with the postures adopted during the performance of the tasks, for that reason was proposed control measures for the mitigation of the risks analysed. Keywords: WRMSD, Work Fatigue, REBA, Furniture Industry.
