Engaging Ergonomics and HF Practitioners
in the Deployment of
Human & Organizational Performance (HOP)
This session will provide an introduction to Human & Organizational Performance (HOP) and highlight the unique skills and expertise that the ergonomics & human factors community has that is essential for HOP deployment. This session will review the 6 core principles of HOP and show the connection of these principles to the approach that ergonomists have taken to improving work for decades. The hope is to create an appetite for the attendees to learn more about HOP and become involved in their organization’s HOP initiatives.
