TECHNOLOGY AND WORKING CONDITIONS

TECHNOLOGIE ET CONDITIONS DE TRAVAIL

It is generally agreed that the state of technology determines, among other things, working conditions. But only in few cases is the objective of improving the conditions of workers considered directly during the planning stages of new products and industrial equipment. Using examples of what technical research can contribute toward the solution of this problem, the author attempts to describe the conditions favorable to the development of technology aimed at improving the status of industrial workers.
