THE IMPACT OF ERGONOMIC APPROACHES ON EFFICIENCY IN THE OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY SYSTEM
Main Article Content
Abstract
The paper analyzes inventive approaches of ergonomics in improving occupational safety and labor productivity in the system of providing occupational safety. The impact of ergonomic working conditions on occupational risk of injury and illness, work fatigue, and performance measures are evaluated using theoretical as well as applied research. Features of assessment of ergonomic conditions are offered and the statistical processing of results of realization of the offers is carried out. The results revealed that the inclusion of ergonomics in the occupational safety system can contribute to a considerable increase in labor safety and work productivity.
