E Münzberger, and E Springer, and C Müller

Within ergonomic complex-analyses which aimed at registering, valuing and optimising the working-conditions of elderly female workers in a large factory for telecommunication technics. 75 sitting workplaces were in detail examined as regarding the anthropometric measurements. Only the third of the working-places were constructed in the anthropometrically best possible way. A wrong construction was found in the case of working-height in 45 per cent, in the case of working-seats in 46,5 per cent, in the case of led-space in 30 per cent and in the case of operating-space for the hands in 22 per cent of the work-places. The results of the analysis led to 103 suggestions for changes, which are now to a large extend being put into practive in the course of complex measures of rationalization.
