This paper examines the nature and scope of ergonomics in relation to the practice of industrial hygiene. It demonstrates that ergonomics is an independent and broadly based discipline, the work of which is complementary to industrial hygiene and not in competition with it. Whereas the industrial hygienist is primarily concerned with the habitability of the working environment and its compatibility with the health and safety of the worker, the ergonomist is primarily concerned with design for human use and the optimization of human performance at work and in adverse environments.
本文探讨了与工业卫生实践相关的人体工程学的性质和范围。研究表明，人体工程学是一门独立且基础广泛的学科，其工作与工业卫生相辅相成，而非相互竞争。工业卫生学家主要关注工作环境的适宜性及其与工人健康和安全的兼容性，而人体工程学家主要关注产品设计是否便于人类使用以及在工作和恶劣环境中人类绩效的优化。
