Ergonomics of the thermal environment - Principles and application of relevant International Standards (ISO 11399:1995)

Purpose is to specify information which will allow the correct, effective and practical use of International Standards concerned with the ergonomics of the thermal environment. Describes the underlying principles concerning the ergonomics of the thermal environment.

Ergonomie des Umgebungsklimas - Grundsätze und Anwendung relevanter Internationaler Normen (ISO 11399:1995)

Der Zweck dieser Internationalen Norm ist das Festlegen von Angaben, die die richtige, wirksame und praktische Anwendung von Internationalen Normen gestatten, die sich mit ergonomischen Aspekten des Umgebungsklimas befassen. Dies umfaßt: a) eine Beschreibung jeder maßgeblichen Internationalen Norm und wie diese Normen in ergänzender Weise zur ergonomischen Beurteilung des Umgebungsklimas angewendet werden können: b) eine Beschreibung der zugrundeliegenden Prinzipien, die in jeder maßgeblichen Internationalen Norm angewendet wurden; usw.

Ergonomie des ambiances thermiques - Principes et application des Normes internationales pertinentes (ISO 11399:1995)

La présente Norme internationale a pour but de fournir des informations qui permettront d'utiliser correctement, de manière efficace et pratique les Normes internationales relatives à l'ergonomie de l'environnement thermique.  Elle comprend  a) une description de chaque Norme internationale, ainsi que l'utilisation complémentaire pouvant être faite des normes lors de l'évaluation ergonomique des ambiances thermiques;  b) une description des principes sous-jacents dont il est tenu compte dans chaque Norme internationale;  c) une description des principes sous-jacents relatifs à l'ergonomie de l'environnement thermique.  La présente Norme internationale traite de l'application des normes énumérées dans l'article 2. Ces normes traitent des ambiances thermiques dans l'ensemble du domaine couvert par les recherches ergonomiques.  Les informations données dans la présente Norme internationale ne suffisent pas à l'évaluation des ambiances thermiques. Pour ce faire, il convient d'utiliser la Norme internationale appropriée (voir article 2).

Overview

EN ISO 11399:2000 - "Ergonomics of the thermal environment - Principles and application of relevant International Standards (ISO 11399:1995)" provides guidance on the correct, effective and practical use of International Standards related to the ergonomics of thermal environments. Its purpose is to describe the underlying principles that inform how thermal conditions affect human well‑being, performance and safety, and to help practitioners apply the suite of related ISO standards consistently.

Key Topics

This standard focuses on high‑level principles and application guidance rather than prescriptive limits. Key technical topics include:

• Principles of thermal ergonomics - conceptual framework for how environmental factors interact with human physiology and perception.
• Application of related ISO standards - guidance on selecting and using complementary standards that address measurement, evaluation and control of thermal conditions.
• Measurement and interpretation - practical advice on measuring environmental variables and interpreting results in ergonomic terms.
• Human factors affecting thermal response - consideration of clothing, metabolic rate (activity), individual variability and acclimatization.
• Risk context and use cases - how to apply standards across different settings (workplaces, buildings, outdoor activities).
• Practical implementation - best practices for integrating standards into design, risk assessment and compliance work.

Applications

EN ISO 11399:2000 is a reference for professionals who need to interpret and apply thermal‑ergonomics standards in real situations. Typical uses include:

• Informing workplace thermal risk assessments and guidance for managing heat and cold exposure.
• Supporting HVAC and building design decisions to optimize thermal comfort and occupant performance.
• Guiding occupational health and safety policies, training and procedures.
• Helping product and equipment designers consider thermal ergonomics in user interfaces and enclosures.
• Assisting researchers and consultants with consistent application of international measurement and evaluation methods.

Who Uses It

• Ergonomists and human factors specialists
• Occupational hygienists and safety managers
• HVAC and building services engineers
• Industrial designers and product developers
• Regulatory bodies and standards committees

Related Standards

This standard is intended to be read alongside the body of ISO standards that address thermal environment measurement, assessment methods and specific guidance for heat/cold stress and thermal comfort. EN ISO 11399:2000 helps users identify and apply those related documents consistently.
