Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Evaluation of two floor-mopping work methods by measurement of load

Notes: 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.
