<abstract displayLabel="Summary">This communication aims to show why guidelines to prevent discomfort of static postures can be based on endurance data, and to give insight in the aim and scope of a recent "work-rest model for static postures" (WR model). It is concluded that discomfort can be considered as an independent evaluation variable for working postures, anchored in European legislation. The WR model is meant to assist practioners in the assessments and optimization of static postures and work-rest schedules in order to avoid high levels of discomfort</abstract>
