A Total Ergonomics Model for integration of health, safety and work to improve productivity of thermal Power Plants
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper presents a outline for development of integrated health, safety and work in complex critical systems of thermal power plant. In this paper operation and maintenance department of a thermal power plant was chosen as the case of our study. First, to achieve objectives, an integrated approach based on total ergonomics factors was developed. Second, it was applied to the thermal power plant and the advantages of total ergonomics approach were discussed. Third, theimpacts oftotalergonomics factors on local factors were examined through non-parametric statistical analysis. It is shown that total ergonomics model is much more beneficial than conventional approach. It should be noted that the traditional ergonomics methodology is not capable of locating the findings of total ergonomics model. The aspect of this study is the employment of a total system approach based on integration of the conventional ergonomics factors with factors.
