Jointly hosted by the Ergonomics Society of South Africa (ESSA) and
the International Ergonomics Association (IEA), this conference was
attended by over 300 delegates and represented the largest and most
prestigious gathering of eminent international ergonomists in the
history of Africa. It also marked the beginning of a revival in
concern for the well-being and productivity of people at work in
South Africa.
The conference aimed to juxtapose two great ergonomic themes the
under-developed ethos of the affluent societies and the
technologically advanced ethos of the most affluent societies. The
structure of the proceedings reflects this with the first section
addressing the priorities of countries in transition and the last
section addressing the priorities of the most
industrially-developed countries, who have, by and large, long
since solved the sorts of ergonomics problems currently of concern
in the under-developed world. In between these, in a roughly
hierarchical arrangement from micro- to macro- levels of analysis,
are sections which collectively help span the whole field of
ergonomics. Section overviews are provided to outline the topics
included in each section.
