20、izing risks to users safety and health. Users of visual display terminals (VDTs) in office work typically adopt a range of postures (seated with leaning, upright or reclining torso, standing or a combination of both). Workplaces which accommodate such usage can encourage movement, promote comfort an

21、d reduce physical, mental and visual problems. This part of IS0 9241 is intended for use by product and workstation designers and implementers. While drafting the text, the concept concerning the Frankfurt Plane was discussed but not included. The concept will be considered in a revision of this par

22、t of IS0 9241 in due course. Page 4 EN IS0 9241 -5 : 1999 1 Scope This part of IS0 9241 specifies ergonomic guiding principles which apply to the user requirements, design, and procurement of workstation equipment for office tasks using VDTs. In particular, the general principles and requirements sp

23、ecified in this part of IS0 9241 apply to the standards specifying technical design of furniture and equipment constituting the workplace. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this pari of IS0 9241. At the t

24、ime of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this pari of IS0 9241 are encouraged to investigate the possibility applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below.

39、ing principles 4.1 General considerations Workplace design should be preceded by an analysis of the tasks that it is to support. Such an analysis should give information about the different tasks and sub-tasks which are performed and about the use of related equipment. It should also identify the re

40、lative priority given to different information sources within the users task with respect to placement of displays, equipment location and job aids. For example, in many data-entry tasks, viewing of the hard copy has greater priority than viewing of the display. The task analysis should include cons

41、ideration of a) major tasks and their inter-relationships: frequency, importance, position of visual objects, duration and type of use of all associated equipment and their interrelationships, (see IS0 9241 -2); b) the position and use of the hands: implications for posture, reach, and device manipu

42、lation by the relative positioning of VDT equipment and task materials, frequency, duration and complexity of movements. For the design and selection of workplaces for VDT office tasks the following five interrelated principles apply: - versatility-flexibility; - fit; - postural change; - user infor

43、mation; - maintainability-adaptability. The statements of this clause are intended to provide general principles and guidelines underlying the requirements and recommendations given in Clause 5. 4.2 Versatility and flexibility Workstations should enable the intended user population to perform a rang

44、e of tasks comfortably and efficiently. In addition, workstation design should be appropriate for the range of tasks to be performed at the workstation, taking into account user characteristics (e.g. keyboard skills, anthropometric variation and user preferences). It should also be dependent upon us

45、age times such that the longer the time spent at the VDT, the more important is the observance of good workstation design. 4.3 Fit Selection and design of furniture and equipment requires a fit to be achieved between a range of task requirements and the needs of users. The concept of fit concerns th

46、e extent to which furniture and equipment (work chairs, work surfaces, visual display units, input devices, etc.) can accommodate individual users needs. Good fit is needed for the intended user population including users sharing workstations and users with special needs, e.g. handicapped persons. F

47、it can be accomplished by furniture built for a specified use (or user), or be provided in a range of sizes and forms or by adjustability and combinations thereof. Page 8 EN IS0 9241 -5 : 1999 Since, except under special circumstances, workstations cannot be custom-made for individual users, some al

48、ternative forms of ensuring a good fit are required. The extent to which the workstation provides a good fit between the requirements of users and their work should be of primary consideration. 4.4 Postural change The workplace organization, the task and the furniture should encourage voluntary post

49、ural changes. Postures adopted by users and the need for changes in posture are very markedly influenced by work organization and in particular, task requirements. 4.5 User information The users should be informed why and how the furniture and other devices (e.g. support for the visual display unit) should be adjusted. Where specific skills are required for achieving a comfortable and efficient workplace, for example in adjusting work chair or worksurface heights or finding a satisfactory viewing distance, adequate user information and training in such skills should
