Cotopaxi province, we developed and implemented an industrial health and safety manual, oriented to all the areas of production. The research was carried out from an initial inspection to identify physical, chemical and biological risks present in the company, causing an unsafe environment for the worker, the data was recorded using teams of sensory measurement, monitoring for hygiene of surfaces and for bacteriological analysis using PETRIFILM plates. Activities responded to a work plan; values were recorded before the implementation of the manual, were corrective in the areas of process and training aimed at employees, finally values were recorded, evaluating the results before vs after using the statistics tool “t student” test to determine whether or not there are significant improvements to compare the values.
