Invitation from the Congress Chairman
Dear colleagues,
It is a great pleasure and honor to invite you to Zagreb to the 4th International Ergonomics Conference. The city of Zagreb with its long university tradition and extensive congress facilities, offering a wide range of social and cultural activities, represents a perfect setting to celebrate 35th anniversary of the Croatian Ergonomics Society.
35 years ago, the ‘‘Croatian Ergonomics Society’’ (CES) was founded in Croatia. The society is committed to these aims, and works with the International Association of Ergonomics Societies under the auspices of the IEA (International Ergonomics Association) and the Federation of European Ergonomics Societies. Modern technology makes many new ideas possible. Through new developments and the tendency to cross international borders in the age of globalization, modern technology essentially determines the pattern of human work. The aim of ergonomics, and thus the aim of the societies who support this congress, is to investigate work and working conditions by scientific methods in order to bring about an approach to the human design of working condition. This human-related view delivers a new dimension in the quality of work and of products, which will be considered within the framework of the congress. The aspects covered by the congress will encompass user-friendly products, human adapted working places, human organization of working conditions, and regulations, especially as these aspects can be seen in the light of changing enterprises of the future.
All the IEA and FEES Members and others interested in participating are very welcome to join us in Zagreb to the 4th International Ergonomics Conference.
Budimir Mijovic
Conference Chairman
