摘要

A heavy engineering company servicing railway stock including City Rail trains and freight rolling stock sought help to improve occupational health and safety. They were a newly formed company with little knowledge of safety and ergonomics. The consulting group chosen conducted a workplace OHS audit that highlighted more than 300 discrepancies where improvements were needed. Some of these were ergonomic improvements. The company took the report seriously and contracted one of the consultants to provide guidance with ergonomic and OHS improvements. Within eight months the company had corrected all but a few that were high cost items that needed capital approval and were awaiting budget approval. A number of antiquated work practices were carefully examined. Over time major ergonomic improvements emerged with introduction of roll-over work stands. The first one of these was developed and built in house. It housed the large bogie frames and changed the welding repair procedures to such an extent that in its first year of operation it more than paid for itself in the first few months of operation. The company saw the benefits of this and justified the building of large roll over stands for a number of tasks. Some previous tasks had been performed with brute strength and crowbars. This paper indicates these and other related improvements increased productivity through a continuous improvement approach.
