The use of computer is a reality in occupational life. Sedentary behavior is characterized by workplaces where workers remain in sitting and constrained positions for more than six hours throughout the workday, performing activities with low physical demand such as computer work. This sedentary behavior produces adverse health effects such as decreases in physical capability and metabolic…
The excessive computer use at work is associated with musculoskeletal disorders due to the low variation of muscle activity and movements. The introduction of breaks during the work has been investigated as a strategy to change this pattern. However, this form of intervention is inefficient. Alternatively, the manipulation of work by combining different tasks was investigated. The results…
The high incidence of musculoskeletal disorders among computer workers may be associated with risk factors such as low muscular resting and small variation in tasks performed during the workday. Thus, some theories suggest the enrichment of work, achieved when workers are able to perform different tasks, introduces variation to workers' physical exposure. This variation could reduce the r…
This is an ergonomic study involving the use of technology to improve working conditions of people that use the computer as a main work tool. It was based on the development of an integrated system with adjustable sit-stand tables, to remind workers to perform postural changes. All the benefits of the use of these smart desks are under investigation in this ongoing PhD project through psy…
This application aims at the request of a grant to allow the master student Dechristian França Barbieri, who held a FAPESP grant since March of this year, to stay abroad during two months. The research project developed by the student has a partnership with Professor Svend Erik Mathiassen, director of the Centre for Musculoskeletal Research at the University of Gävle. This period abroad w…
