Abstract

Although agriculture has a long history, there has beena lack of consideration and interest in farmers. This paper considered the present condition of agriculture on anergonomic perspective using a literature review and suggestsdirections for afuture study to improve the work efficiency and safety-health of farmers. The results showed that the literature could beclassified 4 categories; the design of agriculture equipment, safety-health, safety management, and product design. The safety-health category contained the majority of papers with product design category containing the minority. In future, a study ofproduct liability probability, the design of a work and rest time, and clothes design against cold will be needed.

농업의 유구한 역사와 달리 농작업자에 대한 배려와 관심이 다소 뒤쳐진 현실에서 농작업에서 인간공학 적용의 현재 상태를 점검하였고 향후 농작업자들의 안전보건과 작업능률 향상을 위하여 진전된 연구가 필요한 항목을 제언하고자 한다. 이를 위해 웹과 관련 학회로부터 2000년부터 2014년 현재까지 발표된 자료를 수집하였다. 검토 결과, 농작업장비설계분야 26.4%, 안전관리분야12.1%, 보건건강분야55.0% 그리고 제품설계분야 6.4%로 분류되었다. 4개 범주 중에서 보건건강분야가 가장 많은 비중을 차지한 반면 제품설계분야가 가장 적은 비중을 차지하였다. 농작업장비설계분야는 편이장비의 보급, 보건 건강관리분야는 작업관련 근골격계질환의 발생과 예방에 관한 연구가 가장 큰 비중을 차지하였다. 향후, PL가능성. 작목, 작업형태별 적정 작업시간과 휴식시간의 산정과 같은 직무설계, 방한작업복 및 작업보호구 설계에 관한 연구가 보강되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
