Abstract
This chapter describes the tests of the prototypes of the sociotechnical and selected ergonomic modules ofthe E/S tool (see Chapter 10) at the Final Assembly shop of the Volvo Cars plant in Torslanda. Gothenburg. Sweden. One section ofthe production line was videotaped and evaluated according to the E/S tool and the PSIM procedure (see Chapter 7). To test and evaluate the selected modules of the E/S tool two workshops were carried out, one focusing on sociotechnical aspects the other locusing on ergonomic aspects. Both the ergonomic and the sociotechnical modules were well received among the participants. The workshops showed the importance of a participatory involvement of employees when considering ergonomic and sociotechnical aspects of the development process.
