Question

Define a task activity and explain how at least three systems of the body are simultaneously impacted by task performance. Analyze in terms of ergonomics

Answer 1

Task activity as per ergonomics :

The task activity with regards to ergonomics refers to all those activities that need to be at place for successful accomplishment of a task .

It involves monitoring and analysis of the activities necessary to be undertaken that will ensure that a particular task can be accomplished successfully within the prescribed time and cost. It involves the evaluation of movements involved, time available , efficiency of physical resources , availability of human resources etc.
It consists of a deep description of physical as well mental activities involved in the task implementation.
It provides an idea about the what could be the task duration , task intensity, task complexity through establishing a critical study about the whole activities involved.

The system of bodies impact simultaneously by task performance are output, cost and efficiency.

The first and the foremost system of body that gets affected by the task performance is the outcome of the activities carried through a task. If the task performance is efficient then the desired outcome will be achieved but if the activities carried in the task are inefficient then the outcome oroduced will not meet the expectations.

Similarly when the activities performed in a task are not up to the mark then the underutilization of the resources and idle staff will add to the cost . When the output produced will be lesser than the expectations and the resources incurred , it will result in wastages and under use of materials and personnel resulting in less output at more cost incurred.

when the desired output is not attained and cost incurred increases than normal then the efficiency of the task abruptly decreases resulting in unsatisfaction. The inefficiency of activities in performing the task results in non fulfillment of goals , non accomplishment of objectives and unproductivity in performing the task. The yask thus perforned will not be up to the exoectations , not creating the influence it should have created.

Thus all of these factors , cost , efficiency as well as the output will get simultaneously affected by task performance.
