Specifies the ergonomic design principles and terminology to be followed by designers during the process of designing work equipment, so as to achieve safety of machinery.

This Standard establishes the ergonomics principles to be followed during the process of design of work equipment and in particular, machinery. Although the principles in this Standard are orientated towards equipment for occupational use, they are applicable also to equipment for private use.This Standard applies to the interactions between the operator and the work equipment when installing, operating, adjusting, maintaining, cleaning, repairing or transporting equipment and outlines the principles to be followed in taking the health and safety of the operator fully into account.The ergonomic principles given in this Standard fully apply to all ranges of individual ability. Information on dimensions will need to be interpreted to suit the intended population.
