Abstract

The head of the "Ergonomics" department of the ECSC noted that it is also the silver jubilee of ergonomics in the ECSC programmes. He then goes on to why action rather than research has been stressed since 1975: action corresponds more directly to the needs of the industry. Ergonomics teams were established in the four Community coal industries: they identify and co-ordinate work in the Community programmes which aim at: --centering the investigation on the miner at work, --developing the implementation of the results of the research, --capitalizing on the unique consensus which exists between the social partners with regard to health and safety.
