| Abstract: | An ergonomics assessment was conducted in a modern, automated hospital-based laundry to investigate workers' complaints of musculoskeletal aches and pains and general fatigue. Numerous job stressors were identified requiring ergonomics solutions. Associated health and safety were also addressed. It was concluded thast human factors must be taken into consideration when designing automated laundry systems to avoid mismatches resulting in potential injury to workers. |
