The paper proposes a literature review on the workplaces ergonomic effective design in the manufacturing systems and industrial plants sector. The main objective is to provide the reader with an accurate overview on the main scientific approaches proposed (during the last decades) by researchers and scientists working in this specific area. The paper passes through the description of several research works as they run through the literature. The initial search identifies a huge number of articles which were reduced to about 50 studies based on content and quality. The descriptive analysis of the literature reveals heterogeneity in the content of the scientific approaches due to the different principles, methods and tools applied for improving the interaction between humans and their working environment.

Abstract
The paper proposes a literature review on the workplaces ergonomic effective design in the manufacturing systems and industrial plants sector. The main objective is to provide the reader with an accurate overview on the main scientific approaches proposed (during the last decades) by researchers and scientists working in this specific area. The paper passes through the description of several research works as they run through the literature. The initial search identifies a huge number of articles which were reduced to about 50 studies based on content and quality. The descriptive analysis of the literature reveals heterogeneity in the content of the scientific approaches due to the different principles, methods and tools applied for improving the interaction between humans and their working environment.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
