“…When looking at the studies, it is seen that by using BAUA, there are few studies in the literature. 70% of the researches have been published in German language [21]. Sevimli et al [22] conducted an ergonomic risk analysis of the working conditions of those working in the rice packaging company.…”

“…After the suggested improvements, they improved the REBA and BAUA scores up to 70% and, determined that the financial aspect of the suggestions was at a feasible level in order to provide a healthier working environment for the employees. Ülker [21] used the BAUA in order to determine the strains encountered during the transportation of parts in the production of furniture and, made suggestions to reduce the workload.…”

“…Ergonomi bilimi insan-mekan ve insan-makine ilişkisinin en konforlu biçimde oluşturulmasını hedefler. Ergonomi biliminin temel amacı, insan makine ara kesitinde, insanları makinelere göre pozisyon almaktansa, makine tasarımının uygun hale getirilmesini sağlamaktır (Carayon and Smith 2000;Ulker, 2020).…”

Covid-19 SARS CoV-2 Risk assessment Preventive measures ErgonomicsCOVID-19 was announced to be a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. A lockdown in most countries throughout the world took place to break the chain of its spread. In late May of the same year re-opening started with new regulations to protect people from this new SARS-CoV-2 hazard. The goal of this study was to evaluate the degree to which COVID related occupational preventive measures were being taken in North Cyprus (NC) at the time of the COVID-19 Pandemic. A checklist was prepared and applied to different industries in NC to identify the observable measures taken. A risk assessment (RA) was conducted in a private hospital using the online interactive risk assessment (OiRA) tool of OSHA-EU. Mask usage and alcohol-based disinfectants at only the main entrances (54.55%) were the most important measures taken. The RA conducted in a hospital setting where there was a lot of people traffic, mostly patients, entering and exiting, showed that the hospital was not well prepared for the new SARS-CoV-2 occupational risk factor. Poor workplace management was identified. Even the most important, basic general measures to reduce physical contact and therefore the risk of infection had not been adopted.

Ülkemizde ve Dünya'da karayolu ağlarının gelişmesi ve otomotiv kullanımının artmasıyla otomotiv içinde insanların geçirmiş olduğu süre geçmişe kıyasla daha da artmıştır. Otomotiv içinde geçirilen sürenin artması, kas ve iskelet sisteminde zorlanmaları da beraberinde getirmektedir. Literatür incelendiğinde otomotiv firmaları ve akademisyenler tarafından ürün ergonomilerini geliştirilmesi ve yaşam kalitesinin yükseltilmesi için yapılan pek çok çalışmaya rastlanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmalar, otomotiv kullanımında oturuştaki konfor açılarının hesaplanmasını ve kullanıcıların trafikte yola daha iyi hakim olmalarını hedeflemektedir. Bu çalışmada ise günlük hayattaki farklı senaryolar üzerinden, otomotiv kullanıcılarının oluşturduğu farklı vücut pozisyonlarının eklem açıları, kullanılan referans noktalarıyla yaratılan iskelet modeli üzerinden incelenmektedir. Açılar BTS Bio-Engineering vücut görüntüleme teknolojisi ile hesaplanmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında 4 adet otomotiv kullanıcısı 30 kişilik topluluk içinden seçilmiş ve seçilen kişilerin farklı grupları temsil etmesi hedeflenmiştir. Araştırma Oklahoma State Üniversitesi Mixed Reality Araştırma Lab.'da yapılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre L4-L5 ve C6-C7 bölgesinde zorlanmalar olduğu ve kadın kullanıcıların otomotiv kullanması esnasında oluşan konfor açılarının erkek kullanıcılara göre daha dar açılar olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
