This book reports the most recent, advanced, successful, and real
applications of ergonomics in order to improve the human well-being
and performance in a short term, as well as the organizational
performance in a long term. The book is organized as follows:
Physical Ergonomics. This section reports case studies where
physical risk factors are presented in the workplace, such as
physical risk factors including uncomfortable body postures,
repetitive movements, force application, manual material handling,
and physical environmental conditions. In addition, case studies
must report applications from physical ergonomics methods, for
instance, RULA, REBA, OWAS, NIOSH, JSI, Suzane Rodgers, ERIN, among
others. Cognitive Ergonomics. This section reports the
implementation of ergonomic tools, techniques, and methods in real
case studies. These applications are aimed to know, decrease, and
control cognitive and psychological risk factors, such as mental
workload, information processing, situation awareness, human error
identification, and interface analysis. These applications may
include the following methods NASA-TLX, SWAT, CWA, SHERPA, HET,
TAFEI, SAGAT, SART, SACRI, QUIS, SUMI, to mention a few of them.
Macro-ergonomics. This section is focused on the analysis, design,
and evaluation of work systems. It reports case studies where risk
factors are beyond a specific workstation. These risk factors may
include supervision styles, teamwork management, task variety,
social relationships, organizational culture, organizational
communication, technology, work schedules, and motivation, among
others. In addition, case studies report the application of
macro-ergonomic methods, such as MOQS, focus group, participatory
ergonomics, HITOP, MAS, and MEAD, among others.
