This book was released on 1989-07-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of interest to: Human Factors/Ergonomics Specialists, Industrial Psychologists, Industrial Engineers, Occupational Physicians, Work Physiologists, Industrial Hygienists, Architects, Industrial and Computer Equipment Designers. If you are involved in workplace or equipment design, human factors engineering, or related fields, you will find Ergonomic Design for People at Work, Vol. I, to be a very practical and helpful guide. It reflects more than 22 years of industrial practice, experience, and research by the pioneering Human Factors Section of the Health, Safety and Human Factors Laboratory at Eastman Kodak. Combining the work and findings of psychologists, physicians, physiologists, anthropologists, and engineers, the book gives practical approaches for the solution of many design problems. It also includes examples and case studies based on real experience, and over 175 practical illustrations. Here’s what you’ll find: Cuidelines for workplace and equipment design that accommodate all sections of the population — women and older workers as well as younger men Innovative techniques for improving work performance and productivity Proven methods for reducing the potential for discomfort on the job Techniques for identifying and alleviating work-related stress Methods for evaluating existing conditions together with approaches for improving them Also included is information on how to: Design work stations for maximum comfort Design codes for optimal transfer of information Select and install appropriate video display units (VDUs) in automated offices Reduce noise and vibration The photograph on the jacket shows a seated workspace in which the operator is seated behind a three-dimensional model. The model represents the reach capability of a person with short arms (5th percentile). Seated workplaces are discussed in Chapter II, Workplace Design.

Download or read book Ergonomic Design for People at Work The Design of Jobs including Work Patterns Hours of Work Manual Materials Handling Tasks Methods to Evaluate Job Demands and the Physiological Basis of Work written by The Ergonomics Group, Health and Environmental Laboratories, Eastman Kodak Company and published by Wiley. This book was released on 1989-06-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ergonomics human factors is a multidisciplinary science that uses knowledge of human capacities and capabilities to assist in the design of safe and productive jobs, workplaces, equipment, and products. Eastman Kodak, with over twenty-five years of applied research and practical experience in ergonomics, is at the forefront of this developing field. The first volume of this comprehensive ergonomics resource presented principles by which safe and highly effective workplaces, equipment and environments could be designed. This second volume complements Volume I by drawing on physiology, psychology, engineering, medicine, and environmental sciences to provide practical information for the design of jobs and work tasks. The guidelines and procedures included are based on ergonomic approaches that have proven to be effective within Kodak. Topics covered in this volume include. • The Physiological Basis of Work • Evaluation of Job Demands • Patterns of Work with Information on Repetitive and Paced Work • Hours of Work Including Shiftwork and Overtime • Manual Materials Handling Ergonomic Design for People at Work, Volume 2 offers a realistic approach to the science of ergonomics. Special consideration is given to the broad range of capabilities of the industrial population as determined by their age, sex, and health status. Over 140 illustrations graphically present key concepts that help identify solutions to many problems. Ergonomics and human factors specialists, health and safety professionals, industrial hygienists, industrial engineers, equipment designers, architects, and labor relations specialists will find this volume an indispensable reference.

Download or read book Production Ergonomics written by Cecilia Berlin and published by Ubiquity Press. This book was released on 2017-06-28 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Production ergonomics – the science and practice of designing industrial workplaces to optimize human well-being and system performance – is a complex challenge for a designer. Humans are a valuable and flexible resource in any system of creation, and as long as they stay healthy, alert and motivated, they perform well and also become more competent over time, which increases their value as a resource. However, if a system designer is not mindful or aware of the many threats to health and system performance that may emerge, the end result may include inefficiency, productivity losses, low working morale, injuries and sick-leave. To help budding system designers and production engineers tackle these design challenges holistically, this book offers a multi-faceted orientation in the prerequisites for healthy and effective human work. We will cover physical, cognitive and organizational aspects of ergonomics, and provide both the individual human perspective and that of groups and populations, ending up with a look at global challenges that require workplaces to become more socially and economically sustainable. This book is written to give you a warm welcome to the subject, and to provide a solid foundation for improving industrial workplaces to attract and retain healthy and productive staff in the long run.
