Worker Analysis

Worker analysis

Worker analysis determines the characteristics the worker must
possess to meet the job requirements, the responsibilities the worker will
have in the job and how the worker will be rewarded. Some jobs require
manual Labour and physical strengths whereas others require none.
Physical requirements are assessed not only to make sure the right work
is placed in a job but also to determine the physical requirements are
excessive, necessitating redesign. The same type of design questions
must be addressed for mental stress.

Environmental analysis

It refers to physical location of the job in the production or service
facility and the environmental conditions that must exist. These
conditions include things like proper temperature, lighting, ventilation
and noise. The production of microchips requires an extremely clean,
climatically controlled, enclosed environment. Detail work such as
engraving or sewing, require proper lighting; some jobs that create dust
levels such as lint in textile operations require proper ventilation. Some
jobs require large amount of the immediate job area.
