Introduction

Part 3, Section 16 provides information and technical guidance on accommodation and habitability, and focuses on how a reasonable ‘work-life' balance may be achieved. This is important for maintaining the individual's, team's and organisation's contributions to operational performance, and for improving retention in the military.

Hence, Section 16 of this document covers the following topics:

Factors Affecting Habitability.

Accommodation Size.

Accommodation Standards.

Many of the Human Factors requirements covered in this document are equally applicable to the design of spaces for living in, as to spaces for working in. Particularly, when developing and designing living spaces, consideration should be given to the information and guidance in the following sections in this document:

Section 8: People in Systems.

Section 9: People Characteristics.
