Abstract

This study looks at the importance of ergonomics in transportation as well as the contributions of the human factors and ergonomics (HFE), human computer interface (HCI), and safety-related organizations to this critical area of focus. The study provides an outline of the problems with transportation ergonomics, such as the physical and mental tiredness caused by extended travel, subpar infrastructure, and distracted driving. It considers how these concerns impact the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of transportation systems as well as how industrial engineering, HFE, HCI, and safety groups are addressing these issues. The paper focuses on the contributions made by these communities in identifying ergonomic concerns, developing plans for risk reduction, and developing technology that enhances the effectiveness and safety of transportation. The findings show that even while significant progress has been made in addressing ergonomics-related transportation challenges, more research and development are still needed to ensure that transportation systems meet user needs and promote sustainability and safety. The research provides a helpful overview of the importance of ergonomics in transportation and the contributions made by many groups in addressing this significant area of concern, highlighting the necessity of developing transportation systems that prioritize passenger safety, comfort, and productivity. A review of many studies found that incorporating ergonomics into transportation design can significantly reduce accidents, fatigue, and musculoskeletal issues among commuters and transportation workers.
