Cognitive Ergonomics in Industry 5.0

Industry 5.0 is a concept that represents a human-centered, resilient, and sustainable manufacturing system. With the increase in the importance of the human role within the system, there is a need to adapt standard ergonomic methods to ensure safety within the work environment. The human-centered approach extends the limits of work safety to well-being principles while the new digital technologies which seek human interaction demand enhanced cognitive functions. In this paper, the principles of cognitive ergonomics will be presented as their current use in manufacturing. Due to digitalization, the human operators' role demands changes to the principles of Industry 5.0 ergonomics. The novel framework of cognitive ergonomics implementation in Industry 5.0 will be presented based on a literature review. Results will be used in a future work to implement the novel and innovative digital production and process planning system in the local stove manufacturing company.
