Description:

For the design of a new distribution centre for clothing, the client put from the beginning that productivity and ergonomics have to be geared to one another optimally. This has led to less picking layers, shorter walking routes, better viewing lines, better crates and optimal workplaces overall. The role of vhp ergonomics in this project was: ergonomic consultant for the complete project, project manager for a number of sub-projects, organizer of the user input and trainer during the implementation.
