However, it is impossible not to notice the consequences of poor ergonomics.  This is the paradox of how ergonomists are perceived within organizations. Ergonomists can contribute significantly to the organizations that hire them, yet they are often brought in under mandates that severely limit what they can accomplish.   So, how can organizations get the most out of an ergonomist?  The simple answer is to understand what ergonomists can do, develop the mandate with them, and involve them at the right time.  This five minute read will help you better define (or redefine) the ergonomist\u2019s role and understand how they can support what matters most to your organization."}
