Determining the Expectations of Farm Workers From Work Wears and Developing Functional Work Wear Models
Abstract
Technological developments that
occurred in the production of clothing allow the producing of clothing having
different properties. Thus the concept of work clothes has emerged. In this
research, primarily, a survey was conducted to determine expectations of
employees' work wear in the agricultural sector. In continuation of the study,
new work wear has been developed to protect the health and safety of employees.
In the final part of the study, clothing experiment for fitting of body is
subjectively evaluated. In order to assess the overall posture and fitting,
eight male and eight female volunteers have been used for test subject and the
volunteers' opinions were obtained on work wear using a questionnaire. Subjective
wear trial results show that, unisex work wears for farm workers can be
designed. It was also determined that, the model details affect to the body
movement comfort and functionality of jumpsuits.
