  2. 1. Ergonomic evaluation and design of tools in cleaning occupation

    Author : Rupesh Kumar; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industriell design; Industrial Design;

    Abstract : Many work and environmental factors can affect the health of professional cleaners. In many of the work environments where cleaners are found the conditions that promote various occupational diseases (e.g., musculoskeletal disorders) are readily manageable. READ MORE

    Abstract : Different office types provide the preconditions for distinct user experiences. However, research evidence on how users appraise flexible offices such as activity-based or combi offices is not as abundant as in the case of the more traditional open-plan and cell offices. READ MORE

  7. 5. Ergonomic Workplace Design Analysis: Development of a practitioner's tool for enhanced productivity

    Author : Jonas Laring; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; musculoskeletal load analysis; prospective ergonomics; SAM; ErgoSAM; workplace design; MTM;

    Abstract : There is a lack of pragmatic methods to assess musculoskeletal load risks when planning for production when there is no human operator to observe that performs the tasks. Existing methods are generally either expensive computer manikin software that is complicated to learn and use, simple digital human models for static and episodic analysis best used by trained ergonomists or methods in need of full-scale prototypes for observation.
