Human factors, ergonomics and built environment design integration

Supporting control centres australia is ergonomist Fiona McDonald of Absolute Ergonomic Solutions.

In a participatory, user-centred approach, CCA considers and integrates the human factors and built environment design of the control centre:

  • Physical and postural ergonomics;

  • Workflow and organisational ergonomics;

  • Visual and on-screen display environments;

  • Physiological responses to noise, light, colour, etc.;

  • Social responses, interactions and passive knowledge flow in critical and business-as-usual work activities.

The briefing and requirements gathering are undertaken according to the ISO 11064 suite of international standards for the ergonomic design of control centres.
