Task analysis methods in industry.
Task analysis is one of the basic tools used by ergonomists in investigating and designing tasks. It provides a formal comparison between the demands which the task places on the human operator and the capabilities the human operator possesses to deal with these demands. Three types of task analysis are described: sequential, branching and process control. Alternative formats are presented and examples given of their use in an industrial setting.
