Main workplaces
Production engineers, quality, safety the work is carried out in companies of the most diverse branches, although the industrial branch predominates, where we can highlight metallurgy, manufacture of machinery, equipment and motor vehicles, food products and petroleum refining. Employing institutions are of different sizes, public or private. Professionals work as a team, with occasional supervision. Eventually, in some activities, they may be exposed to special working conditions, such as intense noise and high temperatures.
What does it take to work in the field of Production engineers, quality, safety
Family occupations require an Engineering or Technology course in the areas of Industrial Production and Occupational Safety, with registration at CREA, followed or not by specialization courses. In the area of processes and methods, times and movements, training in production or industrial engineering is common. The presence of professionals with postgraduate degrees is increasingly frequent. The Occupational Hygienist occupation requires higher education in engineering, physics, chemistry, technology, biochemistry, medicine, biology, or in other related exact or biological sciences, followed by a specialization course in the area of Occupational Hygiene. The full exercise of the activity takes place, on average, after four years of professional practice in the case of engineers and technologists in occupational safety and from one to two years for technologists in industrial production.
