Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Devolving ergonomics : the key to ergonomics management programmes

Notes: Sumario: It is argued that the requirement on ergonomists to develop ergonomics management programmes within industrial companies is as great as those to provide basic human data or to contribute to system analysis, design, and evaluation. Given current concerns with human reliability, work performance quality and flexibility, and health and safety, the only rational and effective way to make interventions is as part of a widespread in-house programme involving described, whereby ergonomics is first given a foundation, the spread throughout the organization and then embedded so that it is seen as a normal part of company activities across all its operations. Case studies are used to illustrate all three stages of this "devolving ergonomics" programmeRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 37, nº 4, April 1994 ; p. 579-594Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Management Programas Análisis de riesgos Diseño del trabajo Condiciones de trabajo Prevención de accidentes Participación de los trabajadores en la empresa Formación Secondary titles: Título: Ergonomics
