and Ergonomics for Sustainable
Development

1 Introduction
Social Responsibility in the organizational context assumes the nomenclature of
Corporate Social Responsibility, being a dynamic discipline because it is constantly
developing, providing a link between organization and society, often represented by
the community of which the organization is part. It has strategy aimed at solid values
and a more humane long-term approach, through dialogue, formation of business
relations and with the State, and relations in various spheres of society, offering the
organization commercial benefits and contributions to the welfare of society (Holme
and Watts 2000).
Similarly, ergonomics acts in the relationship between the worker and its work
within a socio-technical context (internal, external and personal). In its broader
approach, macroergonomics are evidenced interactions between the social and
organizational context in order to improve the existing work system and create
new systems, optimizing the relations between human, organization, technology,
environment and people (Guimarães 1999).
