Engineering anthropometry of employment rehabilitation centre clients

The authors have been involved in a project "Providing Ergonomics Services to Employment Rehabilitation Centres" (ERC). This paper describes the part of the study dealing with anthropometry of the ERC clients. The analysis of the results shows differences between ERC clients, other disabled groups and able-bodied with regard to body dimensions. This finding implies that the ERC clients should be considered as a distinct group with regard to workplace design specification, especially in the ERC workshop.
