The contribution of ergonomics to work study.

In the course of this century work study has come to concern itself more and more intensively with all kinds of work systems and, after the one-sided stress placed initially on motion study and work measurement, has gradually given an increasing measure of attention to all systems elements. As is evident, among other things, from the textbooks on work study, training course syllabi and examination requirements, interest in ergonomics has shown a marked increase of recent years. Considering the desirability of giving ergonomics the widest possible application, it is recommended that this subject be included in all work study training courses, with particular emphasis not so much on the imparting of knowledge, as on effective ways of putting it into practice and on the use that can bo made of ergonomics data.
