One of the greatest
challenges in the occupational health and safety profession is the
application of theory to actual workplace practice.
The difference between how the workplace should be ideally
designed and the limitations that occur in pre-existing facilities are
often difficult to overcome. With examples from the service industry,
heavy industry, agriculture, and the office, this text bridges these gaps
between theory and practice by using case studies to illustrate sound
ergonomic practices.
The Ergonomic Casebook is a resource that
professionals and students can use as a guide for solutions to real-world
ergonomic problems.
