Resumen |
Visual display terminal (VDT) operating time was recorded automatically, and a questionnaire study concerning the working conditions and health of the operators was carried out in different sections of an electronics company: purchasing and selling, drawing, and production administration. The operating time varied among the different types of VDT work and also among the operators of a given section. The operating time estimated by the operators in their questionnaire replies was slightly longer than that shown by the recorded data; however, the distribution patterns of operating time established by the 2 methods were very similar. The operators of the purchasing and selling section and the drawing section complained of problems with respect to their workload. The operators of these 2 sections complained of related health problems more frequently than the operators of the product administration section. This suggests that it is important to estimate the VDT operating time in individual jobs, as it can be a crucial factor in preventing occupational health hazards related to VDT work. |
