This paper deals with the evaluation of risks in the production process. The possible hazards were determined in the production of plastic windows and security measures were proposed. The level of risk were evaluated by using the extended point method, where were defined the probability and consequence of events as well as the opinion of the evaluator. The level of the risk is calculated as the multiplication of these three parameters and is classified into categories: Negligible, moderate, precarious, Adverse and unacceptable. The levels of hazard and safety measures are defined for employees for the manual handling of loads. The highest level of the risk (precarious) was achieved in danger of spine injury, where the risk cannot be accepted without protective measures. Other monitored threats (overload, wrick, fall of the load etc.) are classified in negligible risk or moderate risk that is acceptable or acceptable in increased attention. By compliance of suggested precautions it is possible to achieve the minimization of health threats of employees at work.

Keywords: security, risk, burden/load, risk, point method, danger
