#SextouComNR – Tudo sobre a NR-11 - Transporte, movimentação, armazenagem e manuseio de materiais

Let's talk a little about NR-11: transportation, movement, storage, and handling of materials. This regulatory standard was published in 1978 by Ordinance 3,214, which underwent three amendments in 2003, 2004, and 2016. NR-11: Special Standard According to the classification of NRs, introduced by Ordinance 787 of November 27, 2018, NR-11 is a special NR that regulates the execution of work, considering the activities, facilities, or equipment used, without being conditioned to a specific sector or economic activity. Combining this information with the analysis of the NR-11 title, we can already get an idea of ​​what it will cover. It addresses specific machinery used in various market sectors, which is obviously important for those who work in these activities that require this machinery. Right from its first item, the standard already contains information that it will address safety in the operation of elevators, cranes, industrial conveyors, and transport machines—all equipment used in the transportation, movement, storage, and handling of materials (see the standard's title). Throughout its text, the standard provides guidelines for the best use of this machinery, always with a view to ensuring safety in its use, that is, workplace safety. The entire normative section, which is not long (three pages with items and subitems of the standard), provides very specific guidance on the safest way to use the machinery. #NR11 #SST #RegulatoryStandards
