These recommendations cover the use of computers for administrative and technical tasks and for process control purposes: preparation and training of operators; work organisation and work content (requirements to be met by the working environment with respect to psychological and social factors; measures against social isolation); communication between man and computer (software; irregular response times, malfunctions and interruptions); ergonomic and physical requirements to be met (work posture; noise; lighting; heat and ventilation); accident hazards in the industrial setting; adaptation of systems to handicapped operators. An example of how to develop a system adapted to man is appended. |
