Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Logistical and ergonomic transportation capacity for refuse collection workers : a work physiology field study

Notes: Sumario: The present study aims to provide a system of breaks, including recommendations for their frequency and duration, which is justifiable in terms of work physiology. In addition, a model is described which permits determination of the transportation capacity. When calculating the logistical transportation capacity only criteria relating to the full utilization of the workers'time are considered. By contrast, the strain on the refuse collectors and the requisite rest breaks are considered in the calculation of the ergonomic transportation capacityRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 35, nº 9, September 1992 ; p. 1045-1061Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Fisiología Residuos domésticos Contenedores Carga de materiales Diseño del trabajo Otros autores: Laurig, Wolfgang
