Description
Summary:Safety and Occupational health is a Science aiming to protecting workers in factories and work facilities from accidents that may cause injuries or death to the worker. In light of modern industrial and technological developments and the reliance on systems in various forms in the industrial processes and management of institutions , many problems in the interfacing Between the human (worker) and the new elements of the productive process, the reliance on systems resulted in ergonomics problems facing workers in the workplace which led to the emergence of Occupational Ergonomics (OE) to study these interactive relations in the workplace and the relevant harmful effects on human beings, and HSE applications , which have become dependent on proactive processes or prediction of accidents or occupational diseases, which contributed to the emergence of Industrial Hygiene (IH), which is a Modern science specialized in the study and analysis of industrial stages, the systems used and procedures in order to anticipate the process of man exposure to or being affected by risk.This summary reviews the general features and findings of the research, entitled " The Contributions of Occupational Ergonomics in Industrial Hygiene" . The research focuses on clarifying the role of Occupational Ergonomics in the field of studying the risks and security of people in the workplace along with supporting and reinforcing public health, through demonstrating the characteristics of this science in terms of its division into the types of interfacing between Human and the components of the workplace (the Technology of Occupational Ergonomics), which helps classify the types of confrontation and identify the disciplines and sciences that study and analyze risks : it is characterized by the study and analysis of systems , their interaction with each other and the resulting impact on the human (macro ergonomics) , in addition to provide solutions through the program Occupational Ergonomics , which is one of the most practical aspects of this science.Given that Industrial hygiene is modern science, involved the health and safety of human in the work place, this research reviews the role of Ergonomist and the contributions of this science in general in the stages of Industrial hygiene so as to achieve integration to realize the common goal better, which will be reflected Human health , production efficiency, reducing occupational injuries and diseases in the workplace.
