Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors (CIEHF) |
Ergonomics is a science-based discipline that brings together knowledge from other subjects such as anatomy and physiology, psychology, engineering and statistics to ensure that designs complement the strengths and abilities of people and minimise the effects of their limitations. Rather than expecting people to adapt to a design that forces them to work in an uncomfortable, stressful or dangerous way, ergonomists and human factors specialists seek to understand how a product, workplace or system can be designed to suit the people who need to use it.
In the air transport sector, see Human Factors in Aviation Safety, a CIEHF conference on 09/10 November at the Radisson Blu Hotel, East Midlands Airport. |
