SAFETY OF MACHINERY - ANTHROPOMETRIC REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DESIGN OF WORKSTATIONS AT MACHINERY (ISO 14738:2002, IDT)
This Malaysian Standard establishes principles for deriving dimensions from anthropometric measurements and applying them to the design of workstations at non-mobile machinery. It is based on current ergonomic knowledge and anthropometric measurements.
This Malaysian Standard specifies the body's space requirements for equipment during normal operation in sitting and standing positions. This Malaysian Standard does not specifically include space demands for maintenance,repairing and cleaning work.
This Malaysian Standard does not give recommendations specifically for visual display terminal workstations at machinery. For this purpose MS ISO 9241-5 can be used in conjunction with this Malaysian Standard.
Situations where people are to be prevented from reaching a hazard are dealt with in MS ISO 13852.
