Work organization and ergonomics (1998), by V. Di Martino and N. Corlett
In the last 20 or 30 years, knowledge about how to run an efficient company has undergone profound change. To specialists, the trend has been evident for even longer, but to many people concerned with the day-to-day problems of business and industry, these developments come as fresh, new thinking, and have upset many traditions. This study applies particularly to a range of practical aspects of the operation of enterprises where knowledge from research and applications of ergonomics and work organization is exploited. Both these subjects deal, essentially, with matching the work environment to the needs and characteristics of people.

This publication draws together some of the basic changes now being applied by enterprises around the world, and explains briefly what they are and how an enterprise may start to benefit from them.
