ErgoKnowMe – Computer-Based Analyses and Management of Knowledge in the Assessment of Working Environments

Abstract

Our client and partner, a public accident-insurance company (equivalent to the Worker's Compensation Insurance in the U.S.), has shifted their focus towards the consultation in the designing and redesigning of workplaces. Therefore, after conducting a series of careful analyses, we ascertained that a computer-based system would greatly assist these experts with their analyzing and consulting projects. This viable system, called “ErgoKnowMe”, was successfully tested both in the laboratory and in the field.
