17、ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, go
18、vernmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maint
19、enance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Atten

24、to be considered when designing and/or using mobile booths. As interpreting is an activity that requires high concentration, stress factors have to be avoided and the working environment accordingly has to meet the highest ergonomic standards and provide an environment that enables interpreters to c
25、arry out their work properly.The design of a mobile booth is governed by four overall principles:a) sound insulation, both from the noise transmitted from the booths environment to a booth andvice versa, and from noise passing from one booth to another;b) good visual communication between the interp
26、reters and the participants in the event;c) adequate working conditions for the interpreters, whose booths are their workplace, such as toenable them to sustain the intense effort of concentration required throughout the days work;d) the booth must be lightweight yet sturdy, easy to handle and assem
27、ble, and designed in such a waythat it can also be easily dismantled and maintained. ISO 2016 All rights reserved vBS EN ISO 4043:2016BS EN ISO 4043:2016Simultaneous interpreting Mobile booths Requirements1 ScopeThis document provides requirements and recommendations for the manufacturing of mobile
28、simultaneous interpreting booths. The main features of mobile booths that distinguish them from permanent simultaneous interpreting booths are that they can be dismantled, moved and set up in a conference room not equipped with permanent booths. This document also ensures the usability and accessibi
29、lity of booths for all interpreters, including those with special needs.Requirements for the use and siting of mobile booths are described in Annex A.In conjunction with either ISO 2603 or this document, ISO 20108 and ISO 20109 provide the relevant requirements both for the quality and transmission
30、of sound and image provided to interpreters and for the equipment needed in the booths.2 Normative referencesThe following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content constitutes requirements of this document.

Booths shall be designed in such a way that they can be dismantled, maintained and re-used. Furthermore, the initial performance
40、of the sound insulation shall be guaranteed for use at least 100 times, and handling, assembling and dismantling shall not incur additional replacement costs.Materials used shall be easy to maintain, non-toxic, odourless, anti-static, fire-retardant or non-flammable according to ISO 1182 and ISO 119
