Alexander, David C. and Orr, Gary B. (1992): The Evaluation of Occupational Ergonomics Programs. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 36th Annual Meeting 1992. pp. 697-701.

“The purpose of this article is to acquaint the reader with alternatives that can be used to evaluate occupational ergonomics programs. These evaluations are helpful in monitoring the effectiveness of the ergonomics program as well as to direct and enhance future efforts. The adage, "You don't manage what you can't measure", describes the purpose of ergonomic program evaluations. The benefits of ergonomic program evaluations include: * Objective reviews of program content and effectiveness; * Specific targeted improvements for program changes; * Clear understanding of program goals; * More efficient and effective ergonomic programs.”
