ABSTRACT

What! another book on ergonomics? After all, there are already many excellent texts on ergonomics, for both the specialist and the non-specialist, so is this book any different? Well, yes. This is not a book about solving ergonomics problems; it is a book to encourage expenditure on ergonomics solutions by those who hold the purse strings. The methodology for these solutions is through cost-benefit analysis; after all, ‘good ergonomics is good economics’.
