6. Why invest in er gonomics?

The status and value of ergonomics in a companycan be determined by answ ering the following questions:

Does the organization have problems w ith: yes no

i nc re asing m anufac tu ri ng costs

i nc re asing c os ts fo r main tenanc e a nd re pa ir

d ec re asing p roduc t qual ity

s uscep tibi li ty to pr oduc tion br eakdow ns

k eeping to dead lin es

c ustomer sati sfac tion

Does the organization w ant to:

improve safe ty at w or k

r educ e i llness-r elated absenc e (e.g . for back p ro blems)

m ot ivate

improve the w el l-be ing o f employees

Is the organization planning to: r es tr uc tu re the w or kp laces i nsta ll new fac il it ies i nt ro duce n ew manu factu ring sequences and e qu ipment

If several of the questions w ere answ ered w ith "yes", there is probably a need for ergonomic improvements in the organization, andthe next steps are as follow s:

Using t he ques tionna ire in chapter 10, pinpoint the w eaknesses o f t he w or kp lace a nd analyze them. Formula te goals. Dec ide w ha t a c tion to take. Calc ulate the i nves tment re qu ired and c ompare .

What are the benefi ts ofergonomics?

1. Well-being in the work placeIf all aspects of the workplace, inclu-ding the nature of the work, its orga-nization, the environment and the

space available, are in accordancew ith the abilities of the individual, thenthe condi t ions for maximum worksatisfaction have been met.

2 Less il lness-related absencesWhere w orkplaces have been ergono-mically designed there are less acci-dents and bodily c omplaints, so thereare less days lost.

3 Higher productivityA human-engineered wor kplace is thebasis for increased motivation andperformanc e by its user.

4 Better business resultsThe holistic inspection of the w orkpla-ce and the optimum implementation ofergonomic expertise lead to betterbusiness results.

Why i nvest in the Leica er gonomicsprogram?

The investment in the sensible planning of microscopy work

stations brings benefits to employee and employer alike if all

involved (user, planner, wor k-scienc e spec ialist, medical spe-

cialist and microscope manufacturer) cooperate to introduce

measures to reduce specific stresses. As microscope manu-

facturer s, we c an design our instruments so as to minimize the

stresses on the user and therefore to promote better

working. Leica has therefore given more thought than any

other stereomicroscope manufacturer to this subject and has

created a r ange of ergonomic ac cessories (see section 5). It is

now up to the organization to make use of the opportunities

offered. The higher initial investment in ergonomic c onditions

pays off in healthier, more contented employees, and also in

higher productivity and improved performanc e.

prevents a forced posture, t i redness, reduced performance and bodily

discomfort.

offers better, healthier view ing conditions through the options of adapting the

eyepoint individually and of c hanging the posture at any time.

reduces static exertion during precision work, because the arms and hands

can be supported.

improves visual work, because the high-quality optical system does not sub-

jec t t he eyes to the s tr ain o f a ccommoda tion .

enables the user to concentrate and w ork for long periods at a time.

The advantages for the company:

Higher productivity

Better quality

Lower costs

Less absenteeism

Greater safety

M ore rel iable

Competitiveness

Better business results.
