1.4 Ergonomics certification

The human body is designed for movement and activity but physical stress injuries as a result of static and repetitive
movements or unfavorable working postures may occur.
The ergonomic features of your product, the ones which may influence your physical and cognitive interaction with it,
have been assessed and certified.
A product which exhibits ergonomic features, in fact, shall fulfil specific ergonomic requirements, belonging to three
different areas: Polytechnic, Biomedical and Psychosocial (usability and satisfaction).
For each of these areas, specific tests with real users have been performed. The product was therefore compliant
with the ergonomic acceptability criteria requested by the standards.
In case several machines are managed by the same operator the repetitive movements will increase and as a conse-
quence of this the related biomechanical risk will increase exponentially.
The possible postural risks are the interaction with the user interface, display and buttons.
Follow the below recommendations to avoid, as much as possible, operators acquiring bodily injury.
• Make sure there are suitable trolleys or baskets for loading, unloading and transportation.
• Organize job rotation in the working place in the case several machines are managed by the same operator.
