Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - An Endurance training programme for frequent manual carrying tasks

Notes: Sumario: This study was conducted with the aim of testing whether the endurance time of new employees engaged in frequent industrial carrying tasks can be significantly increased through a short training programme. The results showed that (1) endurance time increased by almost 100% over an 8-session training programme; (2) for a fixed workload, endurance time increased without changing job demand perception; and (3) overall body fatigue may be the limiting factor in frequent carrying tasksRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 32, nº 2, February 1989 ; p. 149-155Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Trabajo físico Transporte de materiales Fatiga Programas Formación Otros autores: Mital, Anil
