Evaluation of two floor-mopping work methods by measurement of load / Inga-Märit Hagner and Mats Hagberg
Sumario: The workload for two different methods of floor mopping in 11 healthy female cleaners was evaluated by rating the perceived exertion, by recording the ECG and EMG and by video analysis of postures and movements. There was less perceived exertion and local muscle loading during work when the push method was used than with the figure-of-eight method. Large individual variations in work postures and movements were found for both methods
