The project brought together researchers from 9 EU-Countries and resulted in a number of actions, particular the following: (a) There is an urgent need defining concept flexible working hours, since it has been used many different even counterintuitive ways; most obvious distinction where influence over hours lies, that between "company-based flexibility" "individual-oriented flexibility"; (b) review Legislation force 15 European countries shows regulation times quite extensive covers...
Beyond workload and specific environmental factors, flight attendants can be exposed to irregular working hours, conflicting with their circadian rhythms having a negative impact in sleep, fatigue, health, social family life, performance which is critical both safety security operations.This study focuses on the schedules of cabin crew as trigger fatigue symptoms wet lease Portuguese airline. The aim was analyze: what are requirements work; whether being observed effective resting timeouts...
Research on the acceptability of assistive systems for improving safety powered two‐wheelers (PTWs) is a pressing issue. The use safety‐enhancing motorised vehicles, including advanced driver assistance and in‐vehicle information widespread in many countries. Yet, there only limited number equivalent intelligent transport (ITS) PTWs, namely rider on‐bike systems. This study describes methodological development specific tool assessing motorcyclists’ ITS, as part profiling questionnaire...
The final prototype of a centralized voice information system, developed under the framework European CeMVocAS (Centralised Management Vocal Interfaces Aiming at Better Automotive Safety) project, was evaluated. This system manages all types messages to driver (i.e., input and output flows from car telephone, radio, assistance systems) minimize their disruptive impact on basic task driving. Analysis results included evaluation ( a) part responsible for determining driver’s potential...
The growing production of waste and increased use water sanitation systems worldwide have been pressuring the water, sanitation, sectors. This study analyzed perception determinants work activity among workers from sector in Portugal, variation demands different shift types, main predictors sleep disturbances. Data collection was performed through a questionnaire administered to 300 2017 2019. An ageing population identified all types. Possible occupational trajectories with changes fixed...
Le projet europeen CEMVOCAS (Centralised management of vocal interfaces aiming at a better automotive safety) ete conduit dans l'optique de pallier les problemes engendres par la multiplication des systemes d'assistance utilisant le canal pour communiquer avec conducteur. Ce visait, en outre, attenuer l'impact negatif ces nouvelles technologies, tout comme celui l'utilisation du telephone, sur tâche conduite. L'objectif etait developper une technologie adaptative, c'est-a-dire capable...
