McVey, Kelly Eckbreth (1995): The Design and Installation of an Ergonomic Workstation for a Packing Operation: A Case Study. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 39th Annual Meeting 1995. pp. 669-672.

“A team of engineers, shop employees, and the plant Ergonomist at a major telecommunications manufacturing plant set-out to design a new workstation dedicated to end-of-line packaging of finished work. The strengths and weaknesses of existing workbenches on the manufacturing floor were examined and the needs of their particular process listed. Based on this examination, alternative bench designs were studied and a final prototype specified. Modular, flexible, and adjustable worksurfaces and components, as well as process changes, were incorporated to optimize the packing operation. The bench purchased and installed for this operation has been well received by the operators and has allowed them to work comfortably with telling productivity.”
