Abstract
The paper examines the characteristics of changes that are intentionally introduced by humans into their living environment. It shows that technical and organizational changes without taking into account human factors criteria - and thus also ergonomic criteria - are the source of many losses. Moreover, the paper contains a discussion of the sequence of actions that lead to relevant changes in the existing reality. It also illustrates innovative engineering applications in the field of ergonomics, known as ergonomic engineering and more extensively - “ergologic” engineering. The importance of heuristic techniques in supporting creative thinking, indispensable in ergonomic design is shown. A discussion of economic development, which is determined by actions of an innovative character, is also presented.
