title: Increasing awareness of ergonomics by in-company courses--a case study.
abstract: There are some traditional ways for instruction and training in ergonomics, for example the academic method or the empirical way of self-taught practitioners. Because of a usually disinterested management, the last way is very often difficult to achieve. This report deals with experiences where a lucky chance happened and the idea of ergonomics arose from the management and became an inspiration of the whole plant.
