27、ization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been establish

28、ed has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

29、 Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standard ISO 9241-1 was prepared by Technical Committee IS

In general this involv

34、es matching the design of products or systems, including displays, input devices, software, workplace, working environment and tasks, to the characteristics, capabilities and limitations of potential users. Improving the ergonomic properties of systems will improve performance, reduce errors and dis

35、comfort, and minimize health and safety risks. Failure to take account of human capabilities is wasteful, will reduce efficiency and result in boring, tedious work. In practice, all users of products or systems are different; it is important to understand in what ways they vary and to quantify the v

36、ariation so that account can be taken of it in design. Both hardware and software can be used for many different tasks, and in a variety of working environments, and it is also important to take these factors into consideration in design. Good ergonomic design is important in any product or system d

37、esigned for human use. It is especially important when: use is intensive; accuracy or speed of the users performance is critical; user acceptance is critical. Work with visual display terminals (VDTs) is often both intensive and a significant part of many office workers jobs. The characteristics of

38、both hardware and software can substantially affect the users performance. Increasingly, users, their representatives and managers are concerned with ensuring that work with VDTs is designed to appropriate standards. What is appropriate in one set of circumstances may be inappropriate in a different

39、 context; when using VDT ergonomics standards it is important to recognize that the potential range of application is very broad. Therefore ergonomics standards often take the form of recommendations, or requirements, which are conditional upon certain defined circumstances. 1 Scope This part of ISO

40、 9241: introduces the multipart standard on ergonomic requirements for the use of visual display terminals for office tasks; provides guidelines for a user-performance approach; gives an overview of all parts of ISO 9241 currently published and of the anticipated content of those in preparation; pro

41、vides some guidance on how to use ISO 9241; describes how conformance to ISO 9241 should be reported. For the purposes of ISO 9241, office tasks are taken to include a wide range of generic text and data processing tasks. Due to the similarity of these tasks to tasks performed in other environments,

42、 e.g. medical, scientific, telecommunications, control rooms and public access, many of the requirements in ISO 9241 are appropriate to these environments as well. ISO 9241 does not cover electrical safety of VDTs. This is covered by IEC 60950. NOTE The ergonomic requirements of flat panel displays

43、are covered in ISO 13406-1 and ISO 13406-2. More extensive guidance on human-centred design for interactive systems is provided in ISO 13407. 2 Normative reference The following standard contains provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO 9241. At the

44、 time of publication, the edition indicated was valid.

46、 the following definitions apply. 3.1 user-performance approach approach to systems evaluation which sets requirements on a system based on the level of performance which users are expected to achieve when carrying out relevant tasks 3.2 user-performance test test in which the level of performance o

47、f users is measured directly in order to evaluate a system NOTE Parameters of performance which may be measured include accuracy, speed, and comfort. 4 General introduction to ISO 9241 4.1 Purpose and intended users ISO 9241 establishes ergonomic requirements for office work with VDTs. Ergonomic des

48、ign enhances the ability of VDT users to operate display screen equipment safely, healthily, effectively, efficiently and comfortably. This is achieved by careful design of the VDTs, the workplaces and working environments in which they are used, and the way the VDT work is organized, managed and pe

49、rformed. In practice, these different aspects may be the responsibility of a number of different people or organizations. ISO 9241 is intended to help designers and manufacturers to develop ergonomically sound visual display terminals and software systems. ISO 9241 is also relevant to purchasers who wish to specify VDT systems for use in their own organization
