  1. Medicine and Environmental Health Three major areas of human endeavor contribute significantly to the reduction of disease and promotion of health. These may be categorized as curative medicine、 preventive medicine、and environmental health. CURATIVE MEDICINE PREVENTIVE MEDICINE ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH Common bases in both pure and derivative arts and science are shared by environmental health, curative medicine and preventive medicine: however there are important differences in their professional thrusts.

  2. Environmental factors or stresses in working area may cause →sickness 、impaired health 、significant discomfort 、 inefficiency Chemical hazards: mists 、vapors 、gases 、dusts 、fumes Physical hazards: eletromagnetic radiations 、ionizing radiations 、noise 、vibration 、 extremes of temperature 、extremes of pressure Biological hazards: insects 、molds 、fungi 、bacterial 、sanitation 、houskeeping Ergonomic hazards: improperly designed tools or work areas improper lifting or reaching poor visual conditions repeated motions in an awkward position

  10. Ergonomics § Definition the application of the human biological sciences in conjunction with the engineering sciences to achieve the optimum mutual adjustment of man and his work , the benefits being measured in terms of human efficiency and well-being

  11. § Contents 1.Work physiology capacity for physical work — capacity of the respiratory and cardiovascular systems to deliver oxygen to the working muscles Energy cost of work — average metabolic energy cost Kcal/hr Work/rest cycles

  12. ＊Fatigue  sources of fatigue monotony environmental factor manual or mental work intensity psychological factors illness , pain , and eating habits  Clinical or chronic fatigue Increased irritability Tendency to depression General weakness in drive and dislike for work

  13. 2. Biomechanics the study of the structure and function of the body in relation to dynamics of man-machine systems — Anthropometry — Assessment of human static strength — lifting , pushing , pulling , carring — hand tools 3. Work place design — standing vs. sitting — posture 4. Human factors/Behavior
