Extractions: Home Research Human Factors and Ergonomics Today, both workers and management are concerned about the quality of work lives, ergonomics and occupational safety and health. New developments such as information and communication technologies and specialized work requiring repetitive tasks add up to a need for human factors engineering. By examining, designing, testing and evaluating the workplace and how people interact in it, human factors engineers can create productive, safe and satisfying work environments. Patricia Flatley Brennan Pascale Carayon Ben-Tzion Karsh John D. Lee ... Douglas A. Wiegmann , and David R. Zimmerman David H. Gustafson David A. Noyce , and Mary Elizabeth Sesto Advising information This program has three sub-specialty areas leading to the MS and PhD degrees in industrial and systems engineering. Specialty areas include sociotechnical systems, ergonomics, and occupational and environmental safety and health. Industrial and Systems Engineering Professor Pascale Carayon (right) looks on as Dr. Paul Smith of the Belleville Clinic updates a patient record in the clinic's new electronic media records system, which Carayon helped implement.

Extractions: Ergonomics isn't always Common Sense; but then again what is Common Sense? I s it a Room Number or a Door Number A Surprising Number of Room Numbers are attached to Doors which swing open and hide the Room Number to all but those who would D u c k into The Room looking for the Room Number that is attached to the Door Huh? [TOP] How about the Architect who built a high-rise office building complex and did not install sidewalks? He only planted grass and he was roundly criticized: "What could he have been thinking?" Six weeks later he returned and installed sidewalksright where the tenants had worn pathways: taking their route, not the architect's. Keyboard Keys, Mouse Buttons, Joystick buttons, etc...

D. Wylie Associates - About Human Factors And Ergonomics
Provides a description of the scientific discipline and system design profession of human factors and ergonomics
http://www.drivingfatigue.com/hf_and_e.htm

Extractions: Human factors/ergonomics is a broad, long established, internationally recognized scientific discipline and system design profession. Human factors and ergonomics professionals improve safety, comfort, and productivity by developing better operator selection criteria, licensing systems, training, operating procedures, and equipment designs. They do this by taking into account detailed scientific knowledge of human biomechanical, physiological, psychological, and anthropometric characteristics. Knowledge concerning human capabilities and limitations continues to grow as a result of human factors research that has long been supported and/or conducted by the government (e.g., Department of Transportation, Department of Defense, FAA, NASA), industry, and about 65 universities in the United States alone that offer graduate degree programs in human factors and ergonomics. Human factors/ergonomics knowledge is extensively documented in numerous textbooks, scientific journals, design guidelines, and design standards. It has been skillfully applied by human factors and ergonomics practitioners in many practical, real world settings of great diversity, helping people to operate things ranging from hand tools to tractor-trailer rigs to space shuttles more safely and effectively. The principal professional society representing the needs of human factors and ergonomics professionals in the United States is the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society of America. The HFES members, representing 47 countries, participate in over 20 technical and professional groups including Forensics, Safety, Consumer Products, Computer Systems, Environmental Design, Industrial Ergonomics, and others. Annual meetings of the HFES include symposia, scientific workshops, panel discussions, and technical paper presentations that are published in the Annual Meeting
