This study reviews assessment methods in DHM tools and explore the utilization of these methods in  industry. Interviews  with  DHM  users  and  ergonomics  specialists  within the Swedish  automotive  industry  showed  that  simulations  and  following  evaluations  are almost  solely  based  on  static  postures.  Integrated  evaluation  tools  in  current  DHM systems are seldom utilized; instead they use company specific evaluation methods. Both the  review  of current  DHM  tools and  the  interviews  confirmed that  there is  an  evident need  for  more  time-dependant  evaluation  methods.  The  results  are  used  to  present  a conceptual DHM module dealing with time-dependant ergonomics assessment.
