Abstract
A technological device (TD) is an object that facilitates the execution of a given process; often formed by a set of interconnected parts that combine to make an operational whole; used for a specified purpose, such as energy conversion, mechanical work, information processing; and has a specified structure depending on the given work parameters and its assigned purpose.
The aim of the proposed method is to improve the design process of the way technological devices are operated from the point of view of operator fatigue. This method is a tool that will help the engineer design ergonomic conditions for TD operation and a safer workplace. The direction of ergonomic modification of TD operation processes is determined by those ergonomic factors for which relevant system relations were identified in the chain of operation during ergonomic diagnosis. The essence of the proposed design method is the process integration of work system resources.
