These standards are important to maintain productivity and to design wage schemes. Also the standards that exist today have been created for individuals without any disability. But with over 10 percent of American population being affected by some form of disability there is a growing need to accommodate them into the workforce. Hence it is important to create modifiers that can be applied to existing standards so that new standards that are applicable to the disabled population can be created. Research has already been carried out in the area of developing these modifiers for certain types of disabilities. This thesis work mainly focuses on three types of disability: Loss of four fingers in preferred hand, loss of thumb in non-preferred hand and a combination of both. The objective of this work is to verify some of the modifiers for elemental tasks or therbligs that are already in existence and to use the same technique to develop modifiers for computer related tasks such as typing and mouse control. 2008-10-01 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1212091918 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1212091918 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
