Abstract
The ergonomics profession can benefit from adoption of the universal design paradigm. Rather than treat people with differences in abilities and characteristics as special populations, this paradigm views such differences as a universal aspect of human experience. Ergonomics professionals and researchers can play an important role in advancing universal design through development of evidence-based practice. Critical needs are identified and discussed.
