Ergonomics and Human Factors (E/HF) practitioners are increasingly engaged in projects meant to centre underserved communities reduce inequities. The subdiscipline of E/HF that has emerged explore the application this way is called community ergonomics. In qualitative-descriptive study, we reflect on progress made field ergonomics since its original conceptualisation 1994. We present six case studies carried out North America, South Africa a variety contexts highlight challenges conducting...
In this paper, we analyse two approaches that attempt to address how a human factors and ergonomics (HFE) perspective can contribute the sustainability of race. We outline principles, purposes fields application ergoecology green ergonomics, thereafter deal with their context emergence, overlaps in purpose, principles. Shared values are deduced related socio-technical principles for systems' design. Social responsibility environmental/ecospheric leading threads giving rise of: respect...
The current paper deals with the definition of sizes for design school furniture schools in Bogotá, Colombia, based on an analysis available anthropometric data Latin American children. State-of-the-art anthropometric, national and international standards were considered, order to define variables that be used defining furniture. Matrices relating age specific dimensions constructed, as a visualization method establishing dimensional differences between children same ranges should covered by...
Abstract This article conceptualises a new multidisciplinary field by establishing the elements of an 'ergonomic system' (human beings, physical space and object/machine) defining term 'surroundings' (PESTE factors) while emphasising ecological aspects human activities. The definition ergoecology is explained etymological analysis names contributing disciplines (ergonomics ecology). multidiscipline combines extends scope two foundational using principles, notions concepts, such as 'built...
Sustainability is a highly important theme worldwide and currently being tackled by almost all disciplines. Indeed, the future of humanity dependent on actions taken now in immediate future. The Ergonomics Human Factors (E/HF) community has not been indifferent to this issue, one concrete adopted International Association (IEA) was establishment "Human for Sustainable Development" (HFSD) Technical Committee.To identify paths action, paper recognizes trajectory HFSD Committee, summarizes...
Accepted manuscripts published in medical journals play a crucial role within the scientific community. Over past few decades, there has been gradual increase number of women entering field. However, remain underrepresented as first and last authors journals. This lack representation makes it harder for them to reach leadership roles advance academically. Even if this studied high-income countries, low- middle-income countries still evidence prove fundamental problem. study aims do by...

This paper presents the rationale behind EQUID (Ergonomics Quality in Design) approach. The approach is a model that integrates two complementary processes. It tackles requirements for addressing user issues according to product life cycle, and it deals with ensure quality of design. was built upon following aspects: challenges design development (PDD) (i.e. uncertainty, complexity consistency), PDD related organizational culture, process, stakeholders involvement.
This paper analyses two proposals that seek to contribute sustainability from an HFE perspective: ergoecology and green ergonomics. It presents both approaches, their principles, purposes, fields of application, thereafter dealing with context emergence, overlaps in purpose, shared values. The principles are given as a framework for developing analytical or practical actions while the ergonomics guidelines proposing concrete interventions. Social responsibility environmental/ecospheric...
There is an increasing need and interest for Human Factors Ergonomics (HFE) professionals to apply our discipline a larger context. HFE researchers are starting conduct research outside of traditional settings, focusing their efforts on complex societal challenges; however, this type work still in its infancy there define how can be used broader contexts, formal institutions. In panel, we begin formalized conversation field scale impact. Each panelist will introduce challenge they addressing...

The current waste management system within the Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) consists of a disposable diaper—the Maximum Absorbency Garment (MAG)—that collects urine and feces during extravehicular activities (EVAs) that last up to 8 h. Such exposure for prolonged periods time contributes hygiene-related medical events, including urinary tract infections gastrointestinal distress. Historically, prior using MAG, astronauts have limited their food intake or eaten low-residue diet before...
