ASSESSMENT OF REVISED WORK DISTRIBUTION FOR GRIFFON HELICOPTER

Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC), Toronto, ON,
requires a contractor to develop a work distribution concept
that considers the redistribution, rescheduling, and revision of
tasks and postural sequences and, if shown to be effective
through IMPM analysis, assess the work distribution concept and
determine the extent it mitigates neck-trouble.

intermediate outcome as outlined in the Air Agile Program Brief:
"Improve health and safety of operational Royal Canadian Air
Force personnel by (Future Concept Directive 3.5.4.4)." Its
subproject involves the development and assessment of neck- and
back-trouble mitigating solutions that seek to improve aircrew
health and safety through technological, physiological, and
task-oriented means.
