📌 OHCOW October Webinar Series 2025

The Occupational Health Clinics for Ontario Workers (OHCOW) are hosting their annual October Webinar Series, addressing key ergonomics and workplace health topics. These sessions provide practical knowledge for improving occupational health and preventing work-related disorders.

📌 IEA Webinar Series

The International Ergonomics Association (IEA) regularly offers global webinars that showcase cutting-edge research and applications across all areas of ergonomics and human factors. These events connect experts, students, and practitioners worldwide, supporting the advancement of ergonomics education and practice.

Featured Webinar: Informal Work in Latin America – Ergonomics Perspectives and Experiences from Brazil

As part of the IEA’s Informal Work Webinar Series, the next session is scheduled for 29 October 2025 at 16:00 UTC (13:00 Brazil, 09:00 US EST). Organised by the IEA Technical Committee on Informal Work in collaboration with the ICOH Working Group on “Demographic Changes, Inequalities and the Future of Decent Work”, and in partnership with the University of São Paulo and the Federal University of São Carlos, this 90-minute event will provide an overview of informal work practices in Brazil.

The session will particularly focus on how technological and organisational innovations impact working conditions and the broader dynamics of precariousness, while also exploring how informality reshapes the societal role of work. The webinar will be delivered in Brazilian Portuguese with English subtitles; live Q&A will be available in both languages with simultaneous translation.

LEBThe Jubilee – 30th International Seminar of Ergonomics was held in Tarnow (Poland) from 9th to 11th May 2017. The Seminar was organized by:

  • Polish Ergonomics Society, Poznan Branch and Tarnow Branch
  • Poznan University of Technology, Faculty of Engineering Management
  • Malopolska Higher School of Economics
  • Polish Academy of Sciences, Poznan Branch, Committee on Ergonomics

FFES LogoThis conference was endorsed by the Federation of the European Ergonomics Societies

The 30th Seminar referred to the problems which were mentioned in the previous meetings, but this year the common theme was “Ergonomics and safety in lifelong human activity”. This approach concerns diverse issues of ergonomics and safety, not limited to professional activity. It shows an interdisciplinary character of contemporary issues in science which require simultaneous actions in diverse directions to create a synergistic effect that will help to solve the undertaken issues, both theoretical and practical.

Some data about seminar:

  • more than 110 participants,
  • 13 countries – from Bulgaria, France, Germany, Great Britain, Hungary, Japan, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sri Lanka, Turkey
  • 4 keynote speakers in plenary sessions,
  • over 50 presenters in 8 section sessions and poster session,
    workshops,
  • a round table: International Ergonomics Association (IEA), Federation of the European Ergonomics Societies (FEES), Centre of Registration of European Ergonomist (CREE) and Polish Ergonomics Society.
