Abstract
The objective of this work was to evaluate the impacts of VEs on safety analysis and participatory ergonomics. A method (SAVE) of applying VEs for safety analysis was developed and tested in the work settings. The method involves a procedure, based on Participatory Ergonomics (PA), Task Analysis (TA), Work Safety Analysis (WSA), standard EN 1050 and three-dimensional (3-D) functional modelling of the objects being analysed. The materials of this work comprised machinery systems of five plants in a steel factory, implementing ongoing modernisation projects.
