✦ Synopsis

The primary source document for safety and health personnel, Principles of Ergonomics is said to be a complete training course for managers working to identify and reduce ergonomic injuries. A recent area directive issued to OSHA offices requires compliance officers to evaluate the potential for ergonomic injuries while visiting workplaces and, if necessary, render a citation under the General Duty Clause.

The document provides information necessary to detect and treat ergonomic problems. It includes 571 pages of text, 250 colour slides, 4 colour videotapes (Β½" VHS), a software program to calculate the action limit for spinal loads, etc. Among the many topics covered are back injury prevention, cumulative trauma disorders, visual display terminals, work physiology, workstation design, vibration disorders and heat stress.
