SummaryA study in Ergonomics in Design compared trained experts and non-experts using Chile's official ergonomic risk assessment tool for upper-limb injuries. Both groups had difficulty identifying work tasks and consistently rating risks during real-world exercises.
Why it mattersTests whether Chile's standard ergonomic tool is reliable regardless of practitioner skill. Useful for designers and deployers of risk instruments, since both trained and untrained users struggled similarly.
