Abstract:
The main goal of the study was to prove the importance of technological improvements in decreasing workers' energy expenditure. The study covered seven workplaces in a ceramic factory producing tableware. The energy expenditure was analysed before and after technological improvements. The measurements were carried out by means of the indirect calorimetric method, using the Kofranyi-Michaelis respiratory gas meter and the "Spirolyt" pulmonalizer during the basic work operations. The tabular method was applied for evaluating the energy expenditure during the auxiliary operations.

Work
Work is defined as the result of a force acting on an object, causing it to move along the line of action of force. It is also defined as the process of transferring energy through the application of force on an object, resulting in its displacement.
