1. Identify an industry of interest that you are going to make an ergonomic plan for. Discuss why you chose this sector.
2. Based on the graph below, what is the incidence rate of nonfatal injuries in your industry? How does this rate compare with other industries? (The graph is on page 7 in the link below) https://www.bls.gov/spotlight/2009/safety_and_health/pdf/health_spotlight.pdf
3. Describe the problems workers face in their workspace during a typical work day.
4. Study their physical workspace using the scientific principles of Human Factors and Ergonomics.
5. Explain the scientific and technical strategies that can be used to resolve this natural world problem.
You need to find and study (research) sources. You can take help from available ergonomic plans but make sure that your plan is original. Discuss scientific vs. non-scientific approaches in your plan as appropriate. Here are some resources to help you distinguish between these two sources- https://www.khanacademy.org/science/high-school-biology/hs-biology-foundations/hs-biology-and-the-scientific-method/a/the-science-of-biology
