Sumario:The human-centered design approach can be defined as the sum of the methods and procedures that make it possible to carry out each evaluation and design intervention, starting with an awareness. It is a philosophy of intervention that places not only people’s needs and expectations, but above all people at the center of the design and production process for products, environments, and systems. Human-centered design is an interactive system development approach that aims to make systems usable and useful by focusing on users, their needs and requirements, and by applying human factors/ergonomics and usability knowledge and techniques. This approach increases efficiency and productivity, improves human well-being, user satisfaction, accessibility and sustainability, and eliminates the potential negative effects of use on human health, safety, and performance. Proper design and improvements in working conditions and work organization can result in increased productivity and competitiveness. In this context, work design is an extremely important issue in the apparel industry, which is one of the largest industries in the world.
