Abstract

The Human Factors and Ergonomics Society (HFES) has created a Task Force to help implement Goal D of the HFES Strategic plan ( https://www.hfes.org/about-hfes/strategic-plan ), to “translate the science of HF/E into practice.” One way for that to occur is for HFES publications to cite standards. This symposium will raise awareness of this idea and provide additional supporting materials. The focus is on 4 example applications - automotive (in particular, SAE standards for motor vehicles), healthcare (with a focus on AAMI), nuclear (from both the IEEE and NRC perspectives), and oil and gas. Papers in this symposium will (1) describe organizations and the groups within them that develop human factors standards for each of the 4 applications, (2) describe how to find human factors standards relevant to these applications, (3) summarize some of those standards, and (4) identify where human factors input is needed to improve the standards of each organization.
