Abstract

The article demonstrates that demands of modern ergonomics in man-machine combination mean scientific-based «machine» requirements as well as man-requirements since they limit reliability of whole system. Comparative study was held among operators (learning network), persons affected by asthenoneurotic syndrome, survey was carried out in private company. It has been discovered that besides usual procedure of job specification and recruiting it is necessary to assess dominating type of behavior, perception and information processing. Compatibility of the type with work requirements affects the effectiveness of mastering of profession and burnout and occupational health. This theory was tested in private company when developing quality management system using Expert system of human comprehensive analysis. Observation was held within six years. The result is that quantity of days because of illness reduced in 2,9 times. It can be said that this parameter is the objective index of human integration and properly developed quality management system in a company. The quality management system worked out in the base of Expert system of human comprehensive analysis allows to reduce burnout of personnel and keep up their occupational health. Basing on survey results the main profiles of operator performance were analyzed taking into account dominating type of behavior, perception and information processing. Thus psychophysiological predictors for potential naval operators were identified. This objective is relevant in naval construction of Russia.
