Active microbeak effects on musculoskeletal comfort ratings in meatpacking plants / A.M: Genaidy, E. Delgado and T. Bustos
Sumario: This study was conducted to examine whether a system of active microbeaks can reduce the discomfort perceived by employees in a meatpacking plant. Moreover, the relationship between the discomfort perceived on the job and musculoskeletal capability was investigated. Twenty-eight men employed in a local meatpacking plant participated in a study conducted over a period of four weeks. Results indicated that active microbreaks significantly reduced the level of discomfort perceived by employees during the course of the working day
