BS EN 894-1:1997+A1:2008

This standard BS EN 894-1:1997+A1:2008 Safety of machinery. Ergonomics requirements for the design of displays and control actuators is classified in these ICS categories:

• 13.180 Ergonomics
• 13.110 Safety of machinery

This European Standard applies to the design of displays and control actuators on machinery. It specifies general principles for human interaction with displays and control actuators, to minimise operator errors and to ensure an efficient interaction between the operator and the equipment. It is particularly important to observe these principles when an operator error may lead to injury or damage to health.
