- W2184776100 abstract "A labor standard is a unit of time required to accomplish a work task. Engineered Labor Standards are used to measure and control the time required to perform a particular task or group of tasks. They are most commonly used in manufacturing operations; however, labor standards are also used in a variety of activities, including warehousing operations. Several factors can contribute to the inconsistencies that are so common to Engineering Standard development. There may be several sources of error in standard development, but the most serious of these is in the allocation of ratings and allowances. An inexperienced rater can easily underrate or overrate a task. On the other hand, inadequate allowances can result in serious health and safety issues for the operation. Ergonomics mainly focuses on minimizing the risk of injury, illnesses, accidents and errors by addressing the interface issues relevant to humans, equipment, tools and systems. Proper Ergonomic interventions do help in minimizing the risk of injury and errors without compromising productivity. Ergonomists from a non-engineering background can often be puzzled by the intricacies in the standard development process. On the other hand, the lack of understanding of ergonomic realities on the part of Industrial Engineers or other standard developers can create health and safety problems in the workplace. This lack of communication between the two often cause confusion among Employers, Unions and Workers. Warehouse workers are very commonly exposed to repetitive lifting, carrying, pushing and pulling tasks requiring excessive bending and twisting. These exposures put these workers at increased risk of injuries due to excessive fatigue and cumulative trauma. On top of the problems, which may be pre-existing in a workplace, an inconsistent engineered standard could place these workers at additional risk due to an increased pace of work, resulting in anincrease in job demands. In addition, under these conditions, a number of workers will not meet the existing performance standards without risking their health and safety. This paper will focus on the literature review on the subject with an aim to highlight the gaps in the Engineering Standards development process in relation to Ergonomics issues." @default.
