KARAKTERISTIKE RADA I ISTRAŽIVANJE RADNOG OPTEREĆENJA U ODJEVNOJ INDUSTRIJI.

Technological processes in the garment industry cause strain and fatigue as workers assume improper postures to maintain the motor co-ordination of the body, arms and legs, with forced posturing of the body and head. All this is due to the unfavourable work method and poor working environment. The paper presents the characteristics of the work process, the causes of strain and the consequences of the strain on the health and productivity. The results of the study illustrate the strain in the actual work operation using the RULA, REBA and SMART methods. The analyzed results indicate the level of strain and offer guidance on how to reduce the strain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
