Industrial ergonomics is concerned with the scientific study of people in the workplace. This reference tool shows engineers and managers in a wide range of industries how ergonomics can reduce costs - including product liability costs - through improved workplace design. The book contains 25 case studies that describe how ergonomics is being successfully applied to such areas as materials handling, work station and office design, manufacturing processes, and product design. Included are studies of cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs) and methods to correct this serious workplace injury, the impact of high workers' compensation costs, the ten most common work-related diseases and injuries, human-integrated manufacturing, and macroergonomics, a new area concerned with overall job performance.
