The aims of the Nordic
Ergonomics Society are to promote collaboration between member
organisations and individuals in the Nordic countries who have an
interest in or are working with, ergonomics and the working environment
and to facilitate the Nordic collaboration in international activities.
NES also increases and promotes knowledge about the interaction between
humans and the environment in which they live and work and facilitates

Robens Centre for Health
Ergonomics |
|
The University of Surrey ergonomics group, established in 1978, has long been recognised as an international
centre of excellence for research, teaching and application. Ergonomics
is the science of designing systems to match human capabilities with the
aim of optimising productivity, while preserving health and reducing
accidents and errors. Ergonomics is multi disciplinary, often drawing on
psychological, engineering, biological and other scientific methods to
address the problems that occur in work systems. Researchers at Robens
Centre come from a wide range of academic
backgrounds and collaborate with colleagues from many different
disciplines. We provide training for people wanting to become
professional ergonomists and those wanting to learn more about
ergonomics approaches. We conduct research into many problems that arise
from poorly designed work systems. Currently, these include
musculoskeletal disorders, workplace stress, organisational change,
patient safety, medication error, the usability of equipment and design
solutions to safety problems.
