Revised NIOSH equation for the design and evaluation of manual lifting tasks

Thomas Waters, Vern Putz‐Anderson, Arun Garg et al. · 1 Jul 1993

In 1985, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) convened an ad hoc committee of experts who reviewed the current literature on lifting, recommend criteria for defining lifting capacity, and in 1991 developed a revised lifting equation. Subsequently, NIOSH developed the documentation for the equation and played a prominent role in recommending methods…

Errors and violations on the roads: a real distinction?

James Reason, Antony S. R. Manstead, Stephen G. Stradling et al. · 1 Oct 1990

In considering the human contribution to accidents, it seems necessary to make a distinction between errors and violations; two forms of aberration which may have different psychological origins and demand different modes of remediation. The present study investigated whether this distinction was justified for self-reported driver behaviour. Five hundred and twenty drivers completed a driver…

As automated controllers supplant human intervention in controlling complex systems, the operators' role often changes from that of an active controller to that of a supervisory controller. Acting as supervisors, operators can choose between automatic and manual control. Improperly allocating function between automatic and manual control can have negative consequences for the performance of a…

Activity theory as a framework for analyzing and redesigning work

Yrjö Engeström · 1 Jul 2000

Cultural-historical activity theory is a new framework aimed at transcending the dichotomies of micro- and macro-, mental and material, observation and intervention in analysis and redesign of work. The approach distinguishes between short-lived goal-directed actions and durable, object-oriented activity systems. A historically evolving collective activity system, seen in its network relations to other activity systems,…

SEIPS 2.0: a human factors framework for studying and improving the work of healthcare professionals and patients

Richard Holden, Pascale Carayon, Ayşe P. Gürses et al. · 3 Oct 2013

Healthcare practitioners, patient safety leaders, educators and researchers increasingly recognise the value of human factors/ergonomics and make use of the discipline's person-centred models of sociotechnical systems. This paper first reviews one of the most widely used healthcare human factors systems models, the Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety (SEIPS) model, and then introduces an extended…
