Design for elbow height (but see exceptions below) Generally, a good tip is that work is best done at about elbow height, whether sitting or standing. Note that it is the work itself that should be at elbow height, not necessarily the work surface (a big product placed on an elbow height surface is likely to be too high).

Ergonomics Standard 1. Purpose / Abstract: The purpose of this standard is to provide ergonomic guidelines for the design and renovation of manufacturing and logistics facilities work areas. These ergonomic recommendations focus on work area design in order to fit the job to the worker to prevent injuries and disorders.

Ergonomic Design Measures. These shops generally focused on preparation, cutting, welding, grinding and assembly using multi-functioning machines and many aspects of human work. Using different Ergonomic Assessment Checklist, Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA), Rapid Upper Limb Assessment. This paper first identifies the most common ergonomics measures that can be used for quantitative evaluation of working postures and physical workloads in a manual assembly system to avoid WRMDs. The paper then propose a framework that allows for the consideration of multiple ergonomics measures to assess ergonomics stresses resulting from work postures in manual assembly work. Ergonomics design measures in manual assembly work. most of the studies relative to ergonomics in manual assembly systems have focused on only one single aspect of ergonomics human performance.
