Project is currently testing simulation surroundings and different measurement devices that help to estimate human stress. When corona-situation allows, the same type of measurements will be assessed in real working environments.
Loading logs and analyzing stress reactions with heart rate variation.
Excavator drivers needed:
Currently we are working with excavator and seeking for excavator drivers to study. If you are experienced excavator driver, currently working with excavator and are interested in the stress factors of your work (and leisure time), we are looking for you. Measuremet are supposed to start immediately when Corona-situation will make it possible.
Measurements will have following steps:
Interview of the driver considering experienced work load
Heart rate measurement and wellfare analysis during 72 hours (including 2 days at work and one day leisure time)
Recording one working day with action camera (in and outside of the cabin) to ease working load evaluation.
If you are working currently with excavator (makes it possible to record heart rate and video) and are interested of stressfactors of your life, don't hesitate to contact us. I would be more than happy to tell you more about our current study.
