Background & objectives: Macroargonomics is a socio-technical approach that aims to improve the work system of organizations. The aim of this study was to investigate the research orientation of macroargonomics in Iran based on research published in Persian.
Methods: The present study is a review and content analysis that was performed on studies in the field of macroargonomics in Iran. Scientific-research databases with the keywords "macro-ergonomics", "participatory ergonomics", "participatory ergonomics", "macro-ergonomics", "comprehensive ergonomics" and "organizational ergonomics" which were published in Persian; Were examined. In addition to the descriptive analysis of extracted articles, a qualitative evaluation of the articles was performed in order to determine the orientation of the studies.
Results: The 64 studies were introduced to the study between 1997 and 2018. 55.51% (the highest frequency) of studies was in the years 2012-2018. Most of these studies have been conducted in the field of industry and fewer of them in the field of education. Most of articles addressed the modification of working system to reduce the musculoskeletal disorders and increase the quality of work life by utilizing qualitative, descriptive- analytical, and interventional methods.
Conclusion: Macroargonomics has been used in all areas and has presented positive results. However, the position of macro-ergonomics in Iran in all areas, especially in small and medium industries is low and requires more applied research. On the other hand, in addition to publishing dissertations and articles, how to do their work and their effectiveness should be presented to decision makers and senior managers to lead to the need to understand why the work system is reformed. |
