一个宏观人机工程学的干预，包括灵活的工作空间设计和人机工程学培训进行了研究的影响，心理社会工作环境，肌肉骨骼健康和工作效率在基于计算机的办公环境。知识工作者被分配到四个条件之一：灵活的工作空间（n=121），人体工程学培训（n=92），灵活的工作空间+人体工程学培训（n=31），和无干预控制（n=45）。在干预前2个月、干预后3个月和6个月收集结果指标。总体而言，研究结果表明，与对照组相比，两个干预组对结果变量产生了积极的显著影响，包括与工作相关的肌肉骨骼不适，工作控制，环境满意度，社区感，人体工程学气候，沟通和协作以及业务流程效率（时间和成本）。然而，在人体工程学培训条件下的工人的磨损排除了这种干预的效果进行评估。这项研究表明，宏观工效学干预是有效的知识工作者在办公室设置。
A macroergonomics intervention consisting of flexible workspace design and ergonomics training was conducted to examine the effects on psychosocial work environment, musculoskeletal health, and work effectiveness in a computer-based office setting. Knowledge workers were assigned to one of four conditions: flexible workspace (n=121), ergonomics training (n=92), flexible workspace+ergonomics training (n=31), and a no-intervention control (n=45). Outcome measures were collected 2 months prior to the intervention and 3 and 6 months post-intervention. Overall, the study results indicated positive, significant effects on the outcome variables for the two intervention groups compared to the control group, including work-related musculoskeletal discomfort, job control, environmental satisfaction, sense of community, ergonomic climate, communication and collaboration, and business process efficiency (time and costs). However, attrition of workers in the ergonomics training condition precluded an evaluation of the effects of this intervention. This study suggests that a macroergonomics intervention is effective among knowledge workers in office settings.
