Anthropometry, Neuroergonomics and Immersive Technologies for the Workplace’s Future: Safer, Self-Sustainable and Digital

Objective: The objective of this research is to identify the best ways to organize tasks, design interfaces and optimize work processes while respecting the cognitive limits, body size and know-how of the workforce. Theoretical Framework: It is possible to prevent occupational and work-related diseases. The future of work is being shaped by a convergence of disciplines that seek to optimize the interaction between humans and machines. Method: The method used included publications related to the topic on immersive training, movement programming and respect for anthropometric differences between genders. Results and Discussion: The results indicate a reduction in mental fatigue, a reduction in the cognitive load in tasks with the creation of work routines and greater attention and productivity. Research Implications: This review research shows how neuroergonomics, anthropometry and immersive technologies, considered pillars of transformation, have the potential to create safer, more efficient work environments adapted to the individual needs of workers. Originality/Value: The study of the physical dimensions and physical-mental characteristics of the human body in the design of equipment and workspaces makes it possible to create more comfortable and safe environments, reducing the risk of repetitive strain injuries and occupational diseases.
