✦ Synopsis

implements, workstations and public facilities as well as better work organisation and scheduling. It should be emphasised that the Third World provides an area in which relatively simple ergonomics changes can bring massive advantages to output and safety. Concrete benefits have been gained where practical, low-cost solutions are demonstrated and people at various levels including managers, workers and key personnel are trained. Opportunities could and should be created to utilise ergonomics widely in different Third World settings.
