Recycling is a new and developing industry, which has only been researched to a limited extent. This article describes the development and use of instruments for data collection within a multidisciplinary research programme "Recycling centres in Sweden - working conditions, environmental and system performance". The overall purpose of the programme was to form a basis for improving the function of recycling centres with respect to these three perspectives and the disciplines of: ergonomics, safety, external environment, and production systems. A total of 10 instruments were developed for collecting data from employees, managers and visitors at recycling centres, including one instrument for observing visitors. Validation tests were performed in several steps. This, along with the quality of the collected data, and experience from the data collection, showed that the instruments and methodology used were valid and suitable for their purpose.
回收是一个新兴的发展中产业，目前的研究还很有限。本文描述了在一个多学科研究项目“瑞典回收中心——工作条件、环境和系统性能”中，用于数据收集的仪器的开发和使用。该项目的总体目的是为了改善回收中心在这三个方面以及人机工程学、安全、外部环境和生产系统等学科的功能提供依据。共开发了 10 种仪器，用于从回收中心的员工、管理人员和访客处收集数据，其中一种仪器用于观察访客。验证测试分几个步骤进行。这一点，以及收集到的数据的质量和数据收集的经验，表明所使用的仪器和方法是有效的，适合其目的。
