📚 Biomechanics is a branch of physics that studies the forces acting on biological structures, specifically related to occupational biomechanics which focuses on the movements and forces applied during work activities.
⚙️ Occupational biomechanics analyzes the posture, movements, and force application of workers, aiming to prevent musculoskeletal injuries and occupational diseases.
💻 Poor ergonomics in the workplace, such as inadequate workstations and tools, can lead to musculoskeletal disorders, fatigue, and reduced work efficiency.
🔑 Traumas in the workplace can be caused by incompatible work demands and physical capacity.
🔑 Two types of trauma are impact and repetitive strain injuries.
🔑 Static and dynamic work can both be harmful depending on the duration of exposure.
⚙️ The video discusses the limits of manual transportation and the different regulations in various countries.
👥 Factors such as age, gender, physical characteristics, and environmental conditions can influence the ability to lift and carry loads.
📏 Proper lifting techniques include keeping the load close to the body, bending the knees, and maintaining a straight back to minimize the risk of injury.
🛠️ The use of equipment and devices can assist in the safe transportation of heavy loads.
📏 Anthropometry involves analyzing human body measurements to develop ergonomic solutions for load transportation.
📏 Antropometria is the study of human body measurements and its importance in relation to work environment and posture.
⚖️ Applying antropometria can minimize the need for individuals to adapt to unfavorable work situations, leading to improved comfort and well-being.
👥 There are variations in body measurements due to factors such as gender, individual differences, ethnic influences, and climate.
Brazilian feet have different measurements compared to Europeans, leading to challenges in designing ergonomic workspaces.
The variation in body measurements among individuals in Brazil, influenced by race and climate, makes it difficult to establish standardized ergonomic standards.
Different body postures, such as lying down, sitting, and standing, have varying levels of muscle contraction and energy consumption, affecting ergonomics in the workplace.
✅ Proper ergonomics and biomechanics are important to avoid injuries while working.
⚙️ Adjustable workstations and proper posture help prevent strain on the body.
⏰ Alternating between sitting and standing positions can reduce fatigue and improve overall well-being.
🪑 Proper posture and positioning while sitting at a desk are crucial for maintaining a healthy spine and preventing musculoskeletal disorders.
📏 The height and angles of the chair, desk, and monitor should be adjusted to support a correct sitting posture for optimal comfort and productivity.
🏢 Workstation ergonomics, including the proper setup of seating, desk, and equipment, can significantly reduce the risk of work-related injuries.
