The purpose of this study is to determine an appropriate index to measure the mental workload in supervisory tasks. Nine elements relevant to the supervisory task were formed into a "Test Bank" after the task was analyzed. The reliability and validity of the "Test Bank" were examined. Then an experi

## Abstract In this paper, we present the concept of work compatibility as an integrated work design criterion that simultaneously improves human health and safety, productivity, and work quality in manufacturing systems. In this respect, we have modeled work compatibility as a work design paramete
