The workplace is described. Several aspects of physical workload in 6 workers were studied, attention being paid to the effects of muscular effort, heat stress, noise, and carbon monoxide pollution. The problem of the spare man in situations requiring considerable physical effort in hot conditions is stressed. Suggestions to improve the working environment and for medical supervision of workers are made. |
