AB  - Many companies around the world that develop different types of products still do not apply ergonomics at all during this process, or apply it on an intuitive basis. Very few companies are aware of the importance of engaging ergonomists in the design team, as well as the benefits that can be achieved on that basis. With this in mind, this paper aims to point out the role of ergonomics and ergonomists in the design of consumer products. A novel model that refers to the phases of designing a product has been presented, for the purpose of showing how and when ergonomics can be applied during the design process. For each phase, examples have also been given. In addition, the paper identifies potential reasons that have influenced the current situation referring to the insufficient application of ergonomics in the designing of consumer products. This paper could serve as a guide for the implementation of ergonomics and engagement of ergonomists in the process of product designing.

AB  - The topic of this paper is the EU Machinery Directive (MD) and the contribution of ergonomics and the Federation of European Ergonomics Societies (FEES) to the development of this Directive. At the beginning, the contribution of FEES to the process of development of this Directive is considered through the analysis of the activities of this European organization so far. Then, the key changes envisaged by the new MD were discussed, as well as the possible consequences of the planned changes. Aspects of the inclusion of artificial intelligence in MD, as well as the effects of MD on Industry 4.0 have also been taken into account. In addition, certain future possible contributions of ergonomics for the improvement of MD have been identified, primarily those based on the analysis of errors in the human - machine system.

AB  - The Ergonomics and Human Factors Regional Educational CEEPUS Network was established and approved for funding as a result of collaboration between nine universities with a key role in teaching and cultivating ergonomic knowledge and the profession of ergonomist (especially in industrial and logistics systems fields). The prestigious participating universities in Belgrade, Budapest, Krems, Maribor, Nitra, Poznan, Timisoara, Varna and Zagreb aim to promote cooperation in research (providing support for doctoral programs, joint scientific and didactic publications) and in education, at the level of European requirements and standards, but with a focus especially in the Danube region. The aim of the network is to facilitate, encourage and support education, research and professions in the field of ergonomics and the human factor, mainly through mobility, guidance and joint support of doctoral programs (in accordance with existing legislation, rules and regulations in each partner university), and in the long term it is aimed at creating a common doctoral training in the field.

AB  - The objective of the European “machinery” directive (EC/2006/42 directive) is the free movement of products in the 27 member states of the European Union, provided that they comply with the minimum health and safety requirements for the users of these machines. All equipment imported into Europe must meet these requirements. Ergonomics and human factors are at the core this directive, as an increasing number of design and operation factors are considered. For instance, a condition to satisfy is the “reasonably forecastable misuse”. Once it is explained, it becomes very clear, and it is a condition for any product to be sold in Europe. Ergonomics 4.0 have many strong points to valorize about this directive, and all machine builder has to deal with this directive in order to be successful in Europe. The industrial and commercial implications of the Directive are therefore, increasingly meaningful for both manufacturers within and outside Europe. This paper summaries the workshop on the EU machinery directive organized by FEES representatives in the frame of the IEA 2021 Congress.
