Self-recordings of upper arm elevation during cleaning – comparison between analyses using a simplified reference posture and a standard reference posture

Self-recordings of upper arm elevation during cleaning – comparison between analyses using a simplified reference posture and a standard reference posture

Abstract Background To reduce ergonomic risk factors in terms of awkward and constrained postures and high velocities, it is important to perform adequate risk assessments. Technical methods provide objective measures of physical workload. These methods have so far mainly been used by researchers. H...
