| Abstract |
Results of time studies and physiological examinations performed on a rubber footwear assembly-line moving forward periodically (period of 6-10s). This highly repetitive work, which consists of 27 simple operations, causes statistically significant electrocardiographic changes and a marked increase in sensorimotor reaction time from the 3rd hour of work. A new category is proposed for the classification of this work. |
