Abstract:
Domenico is a 40 years old man who has been recognized with a disability of 75% as a result of injuries reported in two separate road accidents (1990, 2002), that led him to have the limb completely rigid.

In this short presentation potential risks arising from the performance of this particular work are highlighted, as well as the suitable design solution making the workplace more secure and protected.
