<abstract displayLabel="Summary">The design of hand tools to minimize anatomical deviations from neutral positions is intuitively attractive. However, in the case of bent pliers, this accomodation of the human subject has been shown to result in a lower performance on a simulated wire-twisting task. The level of the decrement depended on the workplace characteristic of vertical workpiece location, confirming the concept that the design of the hand tool is not independent of the design of the workplace. Additonally, training likely will be required for both managers and operators</abstract>
