The aim of the study was to evaluate the risks of occupational accidents in units of processing and storage of rice in Rio Grande do Sul and to check compliance with safety standards. The rice processing industry accounts for more than 8000 direct jobs. The work generates wealth and knowledge, but, unfortunately, can also generate accidents and illnesses. The cost of an accident, besides causing loss of life, or inability to work, temporary or permanent, can bring large losses to the worker, his family and the state. In the present study are described in seven fatal accidents at work, increases in processing industries. These reports illustrate that protection of workers should not only rest on the lessons learned, but also should be made primarily in prevention. Of the 267 industries in activity in regions rice farms, covering 77 municipalities in Rio Grande do Sul, were assessed 36 (13.5%), through data collection, interviews and visits to the industrial park. It was noted the difficulty for the full deployment of security work, due to several factors such as need for investment, facilities, and personnel training, behavioral addictions and legal requirements. While the laws have more than 30 years, concern and commitment of the companies with the concept of job security needs to be increased.
