Our International Ambassadors provide insight on Ergonomics in Europe. Click on the RESOURCES tab to see what Ergonomics is like in Finland, Germany, Portugal, and the United Kingdom. In 2020, FPE coordinated with NIOSH, AIHA, and IEA to translate readily available ergonomic tools and techniques into multiple languages. When completed, the tool sets will be available on several websites – FPE, IEA, and AIHA. Spanish versions are expected by the beginning of 2021. Work has already under way to get these tools translated into Mandarin.
FPE welcomes four new Ambassadors – Germany, India, Italy, and Spain. Check out their bios under the PROFESSIONAL ERGONOMICS/International Advisory Subcommittee Ambassadors tab.
A second initiative in coordinating with IEA, FPE is compiling a list of graduate schools throughout the world that offer graduate programs in Ergonomics/Human Factors. The goal is to have a comprehensive list by early 2021.
