Anthropometric differences among occupational groups / Hongwei Hsiao, Daniel Long, Karl Snyder

This study identified differences in various body measurements between occupational groups in the USA, as determined in the third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The information is important for researchers, who use human-form databases in evaluating human-machine interfaces and personal protective equipement (PPE), for designers who formulate anthropometric guides for development and selection of correct sizes of PPE
