Aplicação da NR-11 em um armazém logístico: análise da segurança e da eficiência na movimentação e armazenagem de materiais com empilhadeiras

Abstract

Balancing safety and efficiency in material handling within logistics warehouses through the implementation of NR-11 represents a strategic challenge for organizations seeking to align productivity, legal compliance, and worker well-being. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the implementation of regulatory standards in logistics operations involving forklifts, also considering the operators’ perceptions of daily material handling and storage activities. In this context, the study aims to identify the safety practices adopted and analyze opportunities for improvement, with the goal of optimizing transport and stacking processes while ensuring operational efficiency without compromising workers’ physical integrity. Through a semi-structured methodology, the research seeks to analyze response patterns from workers operating in sectors with a high flow of machinery used for the transport and storage of materials within an industrial environment. This approach enables a deeper understanding of different perspectives on the same topic, particularly from those with direct experience in forklift operation, contributing to a more comprehensive and grounded analysis of safety and efficiency in logistics activities.
