Resumo
Biosafety is a set of measures directed to preventing, minimizing or eliminating risks
inherent in activities that can compromise the health of humans, animals and
environment. This study aimed to evaluate the application of biosafety and waste
management standards in a Veterinary Clinical Pathology Laboratory. The
methodology used was exploratory and descriptive. They observed the spaces, the
movement of people, equipment and materials, highlighting the critical points found.
They also observed there are risks in all activities developed in the sector. They were
detected faults in personal hygiene (loose hair), handling inadequate biological
material and chemical agents without personal protective equipment (PPE), risk of
accidents, inadequate clothing, ergonomic risks, excessive noise, insufficient lighting
and incorrect disposal of contaminated products. They concluded that, during the
activities, the evaluated laboratory presented a series of risks to safety standards and
good practices in the analysis laboratory. In order to resolve or minimize this
problem, initiatives are necessary such as training students and collaborators,
implementing good lab practices and a waste management plan, directed to the
control and or solution of all factors unfavorable to the conduct of activities. These
actions can contribute to the quality and responsibility of the results, guarantee,
safety and health of all professionals in the service and the environment.
