This book presents a synopsis, with an innovative approach, of
abundance, types and conditions of work performed in the tropical
plantation and natural forests. It covers work of formally and
informally employed, and of own-account small-scale forest users,
women and children. Activities in tree harvesting are analyzed,
also on-site conversion by pitsawing, planting and pruning. The
abilities of the workers and their efforts while fulfilling their
tasks, resulting in performance and workload, are described with
many examples of published studies. Influencing variables from
organizational, technical and managerial sides are considered as
much as included in the studies. The detailed descriptions
demonstrate the methodical state of ergonomic research. For better
understanding of the coverage the background of the development of
forest work science is described. The lasting influence of
Taylorism and the roles of ILO and FAO as well as NGOs, e.g. in
certification, are pointed out.
