Last Saturday, a valuable field activity was carried out at the facilities of
Veneto B and its surroundings, as an essential part of the training of students of the
Bachelor's Degree in Occupational Safety and Health from UMECIT. Under the guidance of Professor
Gilberto Garrido, the purpose of the day was to strengthen the technical skills of
future professionals through the direct use of fundamental equipment in the area of
Occupational Hygiene.
The practice allowed students to become familiar with key instruments for the
risk assessment, such as the sound level meter, used to measure sound pressure levels and
to detect potential sources of noise pollution, and the lux meter, a tool
indispensable for determining the light intensity in different workstations and
Ensure compliance with health and safety regulations.
During the activity, participants organized themselves into groups to take measurements.
systematic measurements were taken at predefined points. Using a sound level meter, they recorded levels of
noise in operational areas, transit zones and external perimeters; while with the
Lux meters were used to evaluate the lighting in offices, workshops, and hallways. These analyses allowed
reflect on the importance of a safe work environment, preventing eye strain and
promote suitable ergonomic conditions.
This type of practical experience reinforces the comprehensive training that characterizes UMECIT,
by linking theory with the reality of the work environment and preparing students to
to face the challenges of preventive management in the workplace with greater confidence.
