Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Effects of thermal, personal and behavioural factors en the physiological strain, thermal comfort and productivity of australian shearers in hot weather

Notas: Sumario: It here reports a study of Australian sheep- shearers, who undertake sustained strenuous work in air temperatures as high as 45ºC. The main aims of the study were to determine the effects on their physiological strain, thermal comfort and productivity of their thermal environment, their personal characteristics of age, body size, fatness, and alcohol consumption the previous evening, and their behavioural response of drinking water to prevent dehydrationRegistros relacionados: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 38, nº 7, July 1995 ; p. 1368-1384Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Ambiente térmico Confort térmico Productividad Condiciones de trabajo Australia Otros autores: Budd, G.M.
