In order to evaluate the mechanical factors and the level of responsibility in de prevention of labor risks (PLR), control questionnaires and surveys were used according to the risk detected, these instruments helped to obtain a diagnostic of the slaughterhouse and its deficiencies in each work area through sufficient data collection to establish the personnel productivity indicators related to the mechanical risk factors, considering the following: training in PLR, absences, frequency, and difficulty. For the hypothesis verification the Chi-square test was applied. A prevention plan for mechanical risk was made to improve the operations, job conditions, and control risks. It is concluded that the PLR plan decreased the number of accidents in 39.62% and it shows an estimated 27% increase of personnel productivity; thus, protecting the workers physical integrity.
