The NIOSH program for evaluating biomechanical hazards in the workplace
The NIOSH program for evaluating biomechanical hazards in the workplace is a scholarly work by Vern Putz-Anderson, published in 1985 in ''Journal of Safety Research''. The main subjects of the publication include hazard, industrial hazard, transportation engineering, work, poison control center, biological hazard, injury prevention, occupational health and safety, suicide prevention, musculoskeletal disorder, biomechanics, forensic engineering, control in organization management, engineering, clinical engineering, cindynics, and ergonomics. Principles drawn from the field of ergonomics were used to evaluate whether a certain work activity has caused an observed incidence of cumulative trauma to the neuro-musculo-skeletal system.
