Preface
The annual International Conference on Global Security, Safety and Sustainability
(ICGS3) is an established platform in which security, safety and sustainability issues
can be examined from several global perspectives through dialogue between academ-
ics, students, government representatives, chief executives, security professionals, and
research scientists from the United Kingdom and from around the globe.
The three-day conference focused on the challenges of complexity, rapid pace of
change and risk/opportunity issues associated with modern products, systems, special
events and infrastructures. The importance of adopting systematic and systemic ap-
proaches to the assurance of these systems was emphasized within a special stream
focused on strategic frameworks, architectures and human factors. The conference
provided an opportunity for systems scientists, assurance researchers, owners, opera-
tors and maintainers of large, complex and advanced systems and infrastructures to
update their knowledge on the state of best practice in these challenging domains
while networking with the leading researchers and solution providers.
ICGS3 2010 received paper submissions from more than 17 different countries in
all continents. Only 31 papers were selected and were presented as full papers. The
program also included a number of keynote lectures by leading researchers, security
professionals and government representatives.

Abstract. Nowadays, market trade economy is witnessing to a continuous de-
velopment and transformation. The organizations come to be seen as socio-
technical systems with new ergonomic contexts. Various types of relationships
can be established. From the ergonomic analysis point of view, it is necessary
to understand all the mechanisms that regulate these relationships. The interac-
tion between clients and professionals (workers) reproduce a relationship that
can be important to the ergonomic analysis. This paper allows a better compre-
hension of the relationship in the effective’s ergonomic intervention. A case
study was analyzed in a private health sector using the Ergonomic Three-
dimension Analysis as an ergonomic approach. This analysis is made by three
different but related dimensions: analyst, professional and client. The results
show that that clients’ involvement in the ergonomic analysis will benefit the
ergonomic intervention and consequently the professional environment.
Keywords: systems, relationships, clients, analysis, intervention.
1 Introduction
In the last years, the corporations are no longer the centre of the market economy.
They became a scene for different actors who, over time, have different roles within
organizations. This new market approach provides that organizations come to be seen
as a socio-technical system [1] comprising a set of different but interrelated subsys-
tems involved: supplier, customer, employee, patient, managers … [2]. The oncoming
between these subsystems is the result of the technological revolution boom involving
new communication technologies and information [3]. This whole process of chang-
ing will have impact in the chain distribution were clients are assuming a vital role.
According to Lindon (2000) [4], the corporation is constructed in such a way as to en-
sure an effective response to the marketing exigencies. Client commands the corporation
destiny, and the top management strategies are developed in horizontal collaboration,
stretching the different organization hierarchies [4]. The quality of goods and services are
improved through the participation of individuals at all organization levels [5].Therefore,
the total quality management philosophy must be focused not only in workforce satisfac-
tion, but also in clients’ satisfaction since in modern social-technical systems they are in-
trinsically linked to the organizations. This complexity of work systems [6] originates new
ergonomic contexts, and for each one, it can be establish various types of relationships:
