Analysis of Postural Load During Tasks Related to Milking Cows—A Case Study

Groborz A., Tokarski T., Roman-Liu D.

International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics

2011

Vol. 17, No. 4

423--432

The aim of this study was to analyse postural load during tasks related to milking cows of 2 farmers on 2 different farms (one with a manual milk transport system, the other with a fully automated milk transport system) as a case study. The participants were full-time farmers, they were both healthy and experienced in their job. The Ovako Working Posture Analyzing System (OWAS) was used to evaluate postural load and postural risk. Postural load was medium for the farmer on the farm with a manual milk transport system and high for the farmer working on the farm with a fully automated milk transport system. Thus, it can be concluded that a higher level of farm mechanization not always mean that the farmer’s postural load is lower, but limitation of OWAS should be considered.
