[Effect of workplace modernization on decreasing energy expenditure of workers in a ceramic factors].
The main goal of the study was to prove the importance of technological improvements in decreasing workers' energy expenditure. The study covered seven workplaces in a ceramic factory producing tableware. The energy expenditure was analysed before and after technological improvements. The measurements were carried out by means of the indirect calorimetric method, using the Kofranyi-Michaelis respiratory gas meter and the "Spirolyt" pulmonalizer during the basic work operations. The tabular method was applied for evaluating the energy expenditure during the auxiliary operations.
