These factors affects VDT operator on musculoskeletal disorder, neck, shoulder, eye strain and also on alertness, sleepiness, performance of VDT operator. This study ...
متن کاملAssessment of VDT Workstation Set Up on
Approximately 1/3 of visual display terminal operators report back and neck complaints, thus, research on optimal workstation parameters are needed. The objectives of this study were to assess the effects of monitor height, chair type, and their interaction on back/neck electromyography (EMG), perceived discomfort, and posture shifts during data entry tasks. Two levels of monitor height (based ...
متن کاملWorkstation design for VDT ( product design project )
Activity and photoergonomic analysis was carried out on 21 VDTs, while the operators were performing usual VDT tasks, at three computer centres in Bombay. Studies confirmed that failure to apply the knowledge of ergonomics to the design of workstations results in unnecessary fatigue and discomfort. Among the various factors which contribute to the efficiency, comfort and well-being of operators...
متن کاملAnalytic and rule-based decision support tool for VDT workstation adjustment and computer accessories arrangement.
One important factor that leads to the development of musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) and cumulative trauma disorders (CTD) among visual display terminal (VDT) users is their work posture. While operating a VDT, a user's body posture is strongly influenced by the task, VDT workstation settings, and layout of computer accessories. This paper presents an analytic and rule-based decision support t...
متن کاملHealth Management for Vdt Operators with Disabilities
In our previous study, we elicited effectual points of view (POV) in occupational health management for visual display terminals (VDT) operators with disabilities. In order to validate the POV, two VDT operators with cerebral palsy newly-participated in our case study. Problems were ascertained, and in order to attempt to reduce the workload and improve operability, we performed intervention us...
