This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by April 2009, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2009. This document includes Amendment 1, approved by CEN on 2008-08-18. This document supersedes EN 1005-1:2001. The start and finish of text introduced or altered by amendment is indicated in the text by tags ! ".

Introduction
Ergonomically designed work systems enhance safety, effectiveness and efficiency, improve human working and living conditions, and counteract adverse effects on human health and performance. Good ergonomic design therefore exerts a favourable influence on the work system, and on the reliability of the human being within it. This European Standard is one of several ergonomic standards for the safety of machinery. EN 614-1 describes the principles manufacturers should adopt in order to take account of ergonomic factors. This standard has been prepared to be a harmonised standard in the sense of the Machinery Directive and associated EFTA regulations. This European Standard is a type B standard as stated in EN 1070. The provisions of this document may be supplemented or modified by a type C standard. NOTE For machines which are covered by the scope of a type C standard and which have been designed and built according to the provisions of that standard, the provisions of that type C standard take precedence over the provisions of this type B standard. This European Standard has five parts that are intended to cover the range of human physical performance variables relating to machinery design. The scope contained within each document defines the boundaries of their application. Figure 1 illustrates the relationship between the standards concerning the different aspects of human performance. The relationship between standards proceed from those between the different aspects of human physical performance: body dimensions directly influence the shape of postures and movements as well as the available muscle strength, which further vary with postures and movements.
