Human Factors
and Performance
(or
Ergonomics)
is the
scientific
discipline
concerned with
the
understanding of
interactions
among humans
with products,
equipment,
facilities,
procedures, and
environments
used in work and
everyday
living. The
emphasis of the
field is the
human element of
the
human-machine-environment
system, the
human-equipment
system, or the
human-facility
system, and how
the design of
consumer
products,
equipment, and
facilities
influences the
performance of
operators and
users.
Virtually all
accidents and
product failures
involve human
factors and
performance
issues. As
such, ITC
Experts'
services
recognize that
human factors
and performance
complements the
more traditional
engineering
disciplines
where the
emphasis is
almost
exclusively on
machines and
mechanisms.
This ensures our
clients of a
superior outcome
that brings
clarity and
authority
regardless of
the complexity
of the technical
issues.
ITC Experts
offers uniquely
qualified
resources for
human factors.
Human factors
and performance
issues are often
part of many
types of
accidents and
product
failures. ITC
has one of the
foremost human
factors experts
in the
industry. ITC
Experts provides
consulting and
expert services
for dispute
resolution, risk
assessment,
insurance
investigations,
consumer
products design,
and industrial
safety. |
