Arnold Love, global director of ergonomics for Visteon, will give a
presentation called "Ergonomic Tools" on May 28. In addition, Dr. Carlos

Ergonomics is a multi-disciplinary activity that studies the behavior and
physical activities of individuals, with the aim of fitting products, systems
and environments to their characteristics, abilities, limitations and needs.
Ergonomics involves custom designing products to make individual's activities
-- at home, in the workplace or elsewhere -- more efficient.
"Visteon is a leader in the implementation of ergonomic tools in the work
environment," said Love, "and we are very pleased to participate in this
Congress. Visteon is proud of Dr. Carlos Espejo's significant contributions
to the ergonomics field, and the benefits of those contributions not only for
our employees, but for all of Mexican industry."

Conferences, six of which have involved additional countries. Visteon also

Occupational Health and Safety, in cooperation with SEMAC and the Mexican Work
Health Federation (FENASTAC).
