Evaluación de diseño del puesto del conductor de los ómnibus urbanos en Cuba.

In this article, the level of satisfaction-dissatisfaction of urban bus drivers with their job position in Cuba was evaluated. A well-designed workstation guarantees that workers don't suffer occupational diseases, longer working hours as well as a better job performance. The observation method was used, which provided the guidelines to design a survey to 60 urban bus drivers, who evaluated 24 parameters of interest related to their position. Although, in general, the results were acceptable, it is well known that the drivers suffer from fatigue, stress or overexertion that could increase the risk of traffic accidents. The result of this poll will be very useful to elaborate an instrument that help improve the items considerate inappropriate, and to determine a guideline to evaluate the driver's position of the imported busses as well as the ones produced in our country.
