Abstract:

The results of ten ergonomic evaluations conducted in the EMS ISO Dock, the EMS Structural Maintenance Shop, and the APS Special Handling Shop at Dover AFB are described. The evaluations were performed as part of an Air Mobility Command-sponsored effort to identify, evaluate, and control hazards for work-related musculoskeletal disorders. The report identifies key risk factors associated with various jobs in each shop, the underlying cause of the hazard, control options to reduce or eliminate the hazard, and the expected impacts of each control measure.
