Use of OWAS and fault tree analysis to create a cost/benefit matrix for posture improvement investment

This thesis consists of 2 parts. -part b- This project aims to propose a matrix cost/benefit model to present and compare various suggested ergonomics measures based on the estimated cost/benefit. This model is expected to provide quantitative information to help business decision- makers choose an...
