Abstract

Recently, Multi-Process Holding developed in Toyata Production System or Cell Production, is used more often. In these systems, the work posture must be changed from sitting in a chair to standing combined with periodic walking or standing. Standing posture combined with periodic walking is researched as to whether or not there is a difference of workload compared to standing alone and sitting in a chair. However, there have been many studies about fatigue. In this study, I reviewed standing posture combined with periodic walking, standing posture and chair-sitting posture. There are excellent results of field studies about fatigue felt due to work postures, experimental studies about fatigue felt due to work postures, physical change due to work postures, the effects of support chairs, keeping fixed work postures, trends in fatigue felt due to work posture being changed from sitting in a chair to Multi-Process Holding and fatigue felt due to work design. There is not much difference in the fatigue felt due to chair-sitting posture and standing posture combined with periodic walking. Under the compulsion to remain standing or sitting in a chair, workers feel much more tired. In the case of standing posture combined with periodic walking, there is less fatigue felt in workers. The work system, for example cycle time, probably affects the level of fatigue.
