Objective
Aims of project:
To reduce the risks of biomechanical stress during maintenance work in the steel industry and to draw up a code of good practice for training personnel in the ergonomic design of equipment and working methods.
Methods:
Description of workplaces;
report on musculo-skeletal problems found, industrial accidents resulting in biomechanical injury, musculo-skeletal complaints reported by workers;
research into and evaluation of phases in the work where there was a high risk of biomechanical damage, and research into the technical reasons for the stresses observed;
recommendations for each potentially hazardous activity.
Aims of the research:
The work of tundish liners, METACON millwrights and other millwrights on three continuous casting lines.
