Factors Affecting Workability01:24

Factors Affecting Workability

214
The workability of concrete is a critical characteristic that influences the ease of mixing, handling, and finishing the concrete. It is affected by several factors including water content, aggregate properties, and admixtures like air entrainment. Water plays a fundamental role as it lubricates the concrete mix, facilitating easier movement and placement. However, the water requirement varies depending on the texture and shape of aggregates. Finer particles and angular, rough-textured...

Area of Science:

  • Ergonomics
  • Human Factors
  • Occupational Health

Background:

  • Telework research is prevalent across organizations, yet ergonomic studies remain limited.
  • Existing literature provides a foundation, but a focused ergonomic perspective on telework is developing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review scientific research on ergonomics and teleworking.
  • To identify key benefits, disadvantages, and research themes in telework ergonomics.
  • To consolidate the scientific discourse on telework and its ergonomic implications.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive literature search in Scopus/Embase and Web of Science databases.
  • Utilized keywords: "teleworking", "telecommuting", "telecommuters", "home office", "ergonomics", and "human factors".
  • Selected and analyzed 36 relevant studies for the review.

Main Results:

  • Identified key discussion areas: consolidation of themes, primary descriptors, leading journals/conferences, and advantages/disadvantages.
  • Highlighted the fragmented nature of ergonomic telework research.
  • Revealed common themes and research gaps in the field.

Conclusions:

  • Telecommuting can enhance work-life balance and employee well-being.
  • The remote working experience is influenced by various factors, necessitating unique company strategies.
  • Further research is needed to fully understand and optimize ergonomic aspects of telework.
