The Research Of Applying Human Engineering To Working Stations To Prevent Injury And Occupational Diseases

Regardless whether it's suitable to name China as the "Factory of The World",it's no doubt there are more and more manufacturing factories and workers in China.Therefore, one of the most important problems that the companies are facing is thesafe production. With the theory and methodology of body measurement, workspace design, working environment and MSD(Muscular Skeleton Disorder),HumanEngineering provides a theological guidance to the problem. This is meaningful toprevent harm in the working environment, lower the risk of injury.This thesis demonstrates systematically the functions of Human Engineering onworking stations improvement, working place injury and occupational diseaseprevention, and studies the technical methods to implement it. The logisticalstructure of the research includes:1. In the beginning, the thesis describes the actual status of working injury andoccupational disease in China, demonstrates the meaning and necessities of designinga safe & health working environment.2. Make an analysis of the causes that lead to the working place injury andoccupational disease, study the relationship with Human Engineering, thustheoretically prove the feasibility of applying Human Engineering to prevent workingplace injury and occupational disease.3. Analyze the characteristics of Human Engineering, and the advantage of usingit to prevent working place injury and occupational disease.4. Study the functions of each body parts, analyze the impact of workingenvironment on them, including eyes, ears, muscular, skepticism, trunks, skins,respiration system, digesting system and, and the environmental elements that lead tothese injuries. In the chapter, the design requirements of working places that complywith the Human Engineering are put forwarded.5. The successful cases of applying Human Engineering by companies arediscussed, thus to make a conclusion demonstration of the experience and techniques.6. In the last, considering the actual conditions in China, analyze the limitationby Chinese companies to apply Human Engineering, including the managementconflicts and benefits & cost balance.
