Research

  • I am currently working as a postdoctoral researcher and teacher. My research
    interest concerns Ergonomics/Human Factors, and particularly physical
    ergonomics, with the aim to optimize human health and performance in the
    workplace.
    Current research concerns:
    * Optimization and design of methods and tools to assess biomechanical
    exposures, and to make those usable for OSH practitioners and companies.
    This involves e.g.
    the Smart Workwear System
    and the RAMP tool.
    * Design and evaluations of interventions targeting at reducing or
    optimizing adverse biomechanical exposures.
    * Epidemiological studies the investigates physiological, psychological,
    psychosocial and organizational factors and their influence on health and
    performance-related outcomes, such as musculoskeletal disorders,
    disability and work ability.
    * Developments of Ergonomics standards (SS, EN and ISO) targeting manual
    handing, workstation design and working postures.
    My previous research has involved e.g. the development and evaluation of the
    RAMP II tool and the RAMP I tool, interventions targeting biomechanical
    exposure reductions, usage of risk assessment tools among OHS-practitioners
    and facilitators, barriers for implementing ergonomics measures.
    You may contacted be for research collaborations as wells as supervising
    degree projects concerning Ergonomics/Human Factors.
