Aims
The aims of the Nordic Ergonomics
Society are to promote collaboration between member organisations and
individuals in the Nordic countries who have an interest in or are working with,
ergonomics and the working environment and to facilitate the Nordic
collaboration in international activities.
NES also increases and promotes knowledge about the interaction between humans and the environment in which they live and work and facilitates the use of that knowledge in the design of the environment, equipment and processes.
Objectives
For members, the Nordic Ergonomics Society signifies interest, skill,
experience and credibility within the world of ergonomics and among other
professionals.
Affiliation to the International Ergonomics Association (IEA) and the Federation of European Ergonomics Societies (FEES) ensures strong international links between ergonomists throughout the world.
The Nordic Ergonomics Society provides ergonomists and those interested in the subject with a focus for important matters affecting the profession. Through various participative committees and interest groups, the NES addresses current and long term issues affecting the professional status and the development of ergonomics, including education and practice.
Members are encouraged to participate in the various activities of NES. Membership offers the opportunity to participate in the coordinating and marketing of the benefits to be gained from ergonomics.
Conferences
The Nordic Ergonomics Society Conference, a major annual event, provides the
opportunity for people to hear about, present and discuss topical issues to do
with ergonomics and related disciplines. In addition to informative value, the
NES Conference offers a strong social element and the chance to meet old and new
colleagues. The conference language is English but some some sessions are in
Swedish, Danish or Norwegian. The conference program includes the Annual General
meeting of NES and the presentation of awards.
