A well-designed workstation that incorporates ergonomic principles may protect employees’ health and safety while increasing their overall productivity. On the other hand, workstations that are not ergonomically designed often demand employees adopt unnatural body positions, which may lead to musculoskeletal diseases or injuries. As a result of these injuries, production is compromised proportionately. In order to make the work environment healthy for employees, such stations must be altered to eliminate uncomfortable and possibly harmful postures for employees.
Ergonomic considerations must be addressed throughout the design phase of construction, which requires collaboration between the ergonomist, engineer, client, implementer, and management staff. The same can be true for industrial plant design, where correct break periods and ergonomic measures may help maintain worker comfort, wellbeing, and productivity.
Job Demand Analysis
Job Demand Analysis is a technique that allows the health and safety department to fully understand the functioning of each production line and to assess possible ergonomic dangers to employees station by station. For an existing manufacturing facility that was not designed with ergonomic principles in mind or that needs to be changed or modified to better working conditions, skilled technicians at Ergobility may address these issues by performing observations and making appropriate recommendations.
