Ergonomist - Which skills are essential?

Interpret and meet requirements and expectations, as discussed and agreed upon with the customers.

While designing products, determine if materials are suitable and available for production.

Mathematics is the study of topics such as quantity, structure, space, and change. It involves the identification of patterns and formulating new conjectures based on them. Mathematicians strive to prove the truth or falsity of these conjectures. There are many fields of mathematics, some of which are widely used for practical applications.

The elements used in design such as unity, scale, proportion, balance, symmetry, space, form, texture, colour, light, shade and congruence and their application into practice.

Use appropriate questions and active listening in order to identify customer expectations, desires and requirements according to product and services.

The dynamic relationship of human structure and function and the muscosceletal, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, endocrine, urinary, reproductive, integumentary and nervous systems; normal and altered anatomy and physiology throughout the human lifespan.

Analyse how people interact with machinery, equipment, and work spaces from an ergonomic point of view.

List the design specifications such as materials and parts to be used and a cost estimate.

Conduct research on present and future evolutions and trends in design, and associated target market features.

Use computer-aided design (CAD) systems to assist in the creation, modification, analysis, or optimisation of a design.

Discuss the project and design concepts with the design team, finalise proposals and present these to stakeholders.

Legislation describing the protection of the rights of original authors over their work, and how others can use it.

The science of designing systems, processes and products that complement the strengths of people so that they can use them easily and safely.

Create rough pictures to assist in creating and communicating design concepts.

Ergonomist - Which skills are useful but not essential?

Implement a variety of techniques such as digital sculpting, curve modelling and 3D scanning to create, edit, preserve and use 3D images, such as point clouds, 3D vector graphic and 3D surface shapes.

The complex physiology of specific jobs and its relation to disorders and medical conditions and the way to optimize health, work ability, and productivity.

The engineering elements like functionality, replicability, and costs in relation to the design and how they are applied in the completion of engineering projects.

The steps required through which a material is transformed into a product, its development and full-scale manufacturing.

Create a mathematical or three-dimensional computer graphic model of the product by using a CAE system or a calculator.

Create technical designs and technical drawings using specialised software.

Communicate in an open and positive manner in order to assess levels of satisfaction with employees, their outlook on the work environment, and in order to identify problems and devise solutions.

Without neglecting more traditional techniques and materials, monitor materials innovation such as new resin, plastic, paints, metals, etc. Develop ability to use them and include them in design projects.

Set of principles based on which something is appealing and beautiful.

Build a model of the product out of wood, clay or other materials by using hand or electrical tools.

The systematic approach to the development and maintenance of engineering systems.

The process of developing a mathematical representation of any three-dimensional surface of an object via specialised software. The product is called a 3D model. It can be displayed as a two-dimensional image through a process called 3D rendering or used in a computer simulation of physical phenomena. The model can also be physically created using 3D printing devices.

Design prototypes of products or components of products by applying design and engineering principles.

Adapt an existing design to changed circumstances and ensure that the artistic quality of the original design is reflected in the final result.

Teach employees how to use their bodies properly in relation to machinery and equipment without harming themselves.

Write down instructions about how to properly and safely use equipment, machinery, and systems.

Assess ergonomics of the workplace in relation to the human resources.

Prepare early models or prototypes in order to test concepts and replicability possibilities. Create prototypes to assess for pre-production tests.

The practice of designing products to be manufactured through techniques of mass production.
