Abstract
Within occupational settings, behaviour and actions of managers, supervisors and workers are influenced by underlying knowledge, attitudes and beliefs. These traits have a significant bearing on what ergonomists and health and safety professionals can achieve within organisations when providing assistance with problems. The stage-specific approach assists in identifying individual and organisational readiness to change. Tailoring intervention accordingly should enhance the likelihood that acceptance and long-term success of improvements will be realised.
