t The approach to designing assembly lines and jobs in the modern world of Industry 4.0 is still too spontaneous. If we want to create a user-friendly workplace, it is necessary to include a myriad of variables with all the ergonomic principles. It is necessary to get involved in the process of progressive and holistic job design already in the phase of product design and the process of production and job design. Inadequate job planning can cause downtime in workflow engineering. If we want to be more efficient in product design, then we need to use the good experience of using digital twins. The experience of these and similar planning can be used for the preliminary design of a virtual workplace, where we can simulate the workload of employees, identify overloads and eliminate them already in the design phase. In this way, we are taking a big step towards streamlining jobs. In doing so, we avoid ergonomic slips, which are difficult to repair later. We are helped by modern tools, such as Tecnomatix JACK, ViveLab Ergo, NAWO ergo simulation, ..., with which we can generate, optimize, rationalize and implement a virtual solution in the marginal framework of a real solution.
Zaradi ukrepov, povezanih s preprečevanjem širjenja koronavirusa, vse več ljudi delo opravlja od doma. Delo na daljavo prinaša določene prednosti in težave. Delavec si tako lahko bolj svobodno razporeja delovni in prosti čas, ima večji vpliv na organizacijo dela, vendar se pogosto sooča z neustrezno ergonomsko ureditvijo delovnega mesta in s statičnim delom. Ergonomska nedoslednost pogosto povzroči poslabšanje zdravja zaposlenih in pojav kostno-mišičnih obolenj. Da bi bilo delo od doma lahko produktivno in čim bolj varno, je potrebno, da delodajalec tudi za to obliko dela sprejme ustrezne ukrepe na področju varnosti in zdravja pri delu. Izpostavljamo participativne pristope k ergonomiji in opredelitev učinkovitosti pri obravnavi dejavnikov tveganja za kostno-mišična obolenja na »domačih« delovnih mestih.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
