Its focus was on the operation of loading auto tanks, in order to prevent, reduce and / or mitigate accidents during its execution. An action research was carried out in a period of twelve months, that started with the quantitative study through data collection in tools already existing in the company. After the analysis priority levels were defined in the problems raised and, finally, action was taken through the application of improvements in equipments, procedures and human behavior. As main results, we highlight the replacement of newer and more efficient equipments, improvements in the course of drivers for loading and creation of campaigns to avoid human failures.
