| Abstract |
Postures at work were evaluated by recording the positions of the arms, legs, back and head at certain intervals, i.e. 4 back positions, 3 arm, 7 leg and 5 head positions. The determined postures were then classified according to 4 strain categories. Results of posture recordings during milking, animal feeding and cleaning operations are presented. |
