Objective: To implement a platform cart as an ergonomic aid for the transfer of materials and spare parts of heavy machinery in the warehouse of the company China 19. Method: Descriptive observational. The most recommended working conditions as a warehouse worker is a maximum load Results and Conclusion: transport weight of 12.82 kg, with a frequency of 10 transfers / hour and with a protected population of 90%. It is considered that, after the implementation of a platform cart, the ergonomic risk decreases considerably below 1, therefore, it would represent a low risk for developing osteomyoarticular injuries in the warehouse workers of the company China 19.
