Realidade virtual e estratégias no setor de armazenagem para prevenir acidentes.

With the accelerated growth of technology, the use of Virtual Reality has become increasingly significant. Virtual reality aims to create simulations where the user interacts with objects in a virtual environment. Safety training guides employees of a company to carry out their activities safely, so that there are no accidents. However, the virtual reality used in training to prevent accidents in the work environment aims to increase the perception of employees and thereby avoid accidents in a particular activity. The present work aims to verify the applicability in the use of Virtual Reality in the development of people in the identification of risks in storage activities in the logistics sector. The study is based on a case study where interviews were conducted with employees in the storage sector of a company located in Serra ES. From the interviews conducted, it can be seen that most employees believe that the use of virtual reality is beneficial for both the company and the employees. Therefore, it is concluded that the applicability of Virtual Reality in the company can bring as a benefit a better image and greater competitiveness in the market, in addition to being recognized as investing in a safe work environment.
