Obiettivo - To reduce the arduous nature of work in finishing shops,- to reduce the incidence of accidents by eliminating the following risks:- excessively short bars removed by handrecutting of deformed bar ends- falls of bars during handling- manual handling of bars- to improve working conditions,- to reduce or eliminate unnecessary and tiresome operations such as looking for lost bar parcels; to reduce material movements,- to optimize tools for improving performance.Treatment of steel bars in finishing shops is hampered by a whole range of handling operations, storage, monitoring and management, all of which have an adverse effect on working conditions, safety, quality and productivity.The accident frequency rate at the end of October 1987 in the finishing shop was 44.6 or almost double the rate in the works as a whole (the serious accident rate being 1.29).Almost half of the accidents affected worker's hands, not surprising in view of all the manual handling operations involved in finishing shops.In the light of these findings, and in an attempt to improve the situation, what is needed is a full-scale reorganization of work in the finishing shop.
