Agricultural Work Science in Farming

Traditionally, the Work Science Colloquium serves as an exchange platform for professionals dealing with work-scientific issues. The work performance is one of the most cost-intensive production factors in agriculture, so efficiency enhancements must be pursued. Consequently, important research aspects as well as the aims of the colloquium are the further develovment of methodology in working-time calculation, the implementation of new information and communication systems, and the optimisation of ergonomics and industrial safety. The colloquium is aimed at the advisory services and the scientific, agricultural and industrial sectors both in Switzerland and abroad and at those, who are interested in everything to do with work science. The conference will be located in Tänikon,Switzerland.
