Abstract: Low performance of industrial processes can be improved by identifying the most productive use of human capabilities and by making sure that jobs fit the persons who perform them, thus maintaining human health and well-being. This paper is a case study regarding the ergonomics problems from the burring process. The work tasks were examined within the frame of this particular work system. The work constraints were identified and practical solutions were proposed.
