Safety by Design
Build risk reduction and prevention into equipment, processes, workplaces and systems from the start.
Ergonomics & Hygiene 2027
Designing work around people.
Safer and healthier work is not achieved by asking people to adapt endlessly to poor systems. It is created by designing work, environments, technology and organisations around human capabilities, limitations and long-term health. In 2027, the Ergonomics & Hygiene Conference brings together safety, occupational hygiene, workplace health, ergonomics and human factors around one shared outcome: protecting people and sustaining human performance.
Protect
Prevent harm and control workplace risks and exposures.
Sustain
Preserve health, capability and resilience across working lives.
Perform
Enable people to work safely, effectively and sustainably.
Conference Focus
The systems that shape human performance.
Human performance is influenced by the whole work system — from physical and environmental conditions to cognition, technology, organisation and work design.
Occupational Hygiene
Anticipate, recognise, evaluate and control workplace exposures that can affect health and performance.
Workplace Health
Create conditions that support long-term physical, mental and functional health across working lives.
Ergonomics
Fit work to people through better task, equipment, workstation and environment design.
Human Factors
Understand cognitive workload, decision-making, fatigue, behaviour and human-system interaction.
Sustained Human Performance
Design systems that enable people to remain capable, reliable, engaged and healthy over time.
