Research Abstract

A sense of busyness can be the cause of human error. To propose effective, concrete policies to reduce this sense, and hence human error, factors that affect it must first be clarified. The author examined the validity of the questionnaire to measure a sense of busyness, and clarified the factors giving rise to such sense among workers in industrial organizations.
