Content | 0300 Edition 1/2010 617.0-IFA:610.1 The use of VDUs at drivers workplaces Problem The work of professional drivers no longer con- sists solely of driving a vehicle and of associated tasks such as loading, but increasingly also of operating on-board and VDU-controlled informa- tion and communications systems. In occupational practice, these systems, which frequently exploit satellite and mobile telephony infrastructures, are used for example for the issuing of jobs from a control centre, and for scheduling and navigation by the drivers themselves. Their use, in particular at drivers workplaces requiring a high level of attention and of high relevance to safety, leads to a higher accident risk as a result of distraction, obstruction of vision, and stress. Trends in technical development, particularly miniaturization, are frequently not in line with ergonomic standards, and appropriate human- machine communication is often neglected. The use of information and communications equipment and the associated tasks increase the overall requirements, and therefore also stress, imposed upon drivers. Activities In a number of applications of IT-supported driv- ers workplaces, including airport tractors and buses, participatory field observations and quan- titative surveys were first conducted. In the proc- ess, the technical, ergonomic, work organizational and work environment conditions were identified, together with the direct and indirect stresses upon the employees. Positioning of visual display units: sphere of reach at drivers workplaces Driver s field of vision to be kept clear Literature surveys and interviews with experts yielded further results concerning specific stresses and hazards. |
