Analysis of differences in anthropometric measurements between passenger car drivers and crane operators - Part 1: Lybian males data
Abstract
This paper is a part of ongoing research
on ergonomic characteristics, specifically
anthropometric measurements, for passenger car
drivers and crane operators, in order to achieve
better working conditions and improve safety. It
represents one of the rare explorations containing
the Libyan male drivers and crane operators data,
and accordingly it is one of the first serious
researches on Libyan population. In this paper
anthropometric measurements and weight data have
been compared between different occupations in
Libya - male drivers and crane operators. Statistical
analysis on 300 male drivers and 50 crane operators
collected data are resulting with conclusion that
male drivers have slightly higher value of weight,
are taller, and have higher sitting height as well as
upper leg length values, while crane operators have
slightly wider shoulders and hips. Both groups have
the same arm and foot lengths
