ISO 27501:2019(E)

Introduction
This document is based on ISO 27500, which explains to executive board members the principles that
enshrine the values and beliefs that make an organization human-centred. The term human-centred
is used to reflect that organizations not only have an impact on their customers (the users of their
products and services), but also on other stakeholders, including their employees, their families, and
the wider community. ISO 27500 explains seven principles of human centredness, which are:
— capitalize on individual differences as an organizational strength;
— make usability and accessibility strategic business objectives;
— adopt a total system approach;
— ensure health, safety and wellbeing are business priorities;
— value personnel and create meaningful work;
— be open and trustworthy; and
— act in socially responsible ways.
Although it is recognized that organizations establish their governance systems based on a set of
principles which they develop (as described in ISO 30408), the principles described here are considered
to be essential to be included by organizations that wish to make the claim of being human-centred.
Human factors and ergonomics provide an effective and valuable approach for managers to utilize in
their day-to-day work to support the achievement of a human-centred organization.
The requirements and recommendations of this document are intended to be applicable to various types
of organizations in the private, public and non-profit sectors, whether large or small. Organizations
vary in their assignment of management responsibilities. Some larger organizations can assign the
responsibilities set out in this document to multiple managers, while some smaller organizations can
have these assigned to a few managers or even one manager. While not all clauses of this document are
of equal use to all types of organizations, all the core subjects are relevant to every organization. It is
the individual organization’s responsibility to identify which clauses are relevant and significant for the
organization to address, through its own considerations and through dialogue with stakeholders.

4 The human-centred organization and ergonomics
4.1 The seven principles of a human-centred organization
The seven principles that characterize a human-centred organization, are outlined in ISO 27500 as
follows.
1) Capitalize on individual differences as an organizational strength
The organization recognises individual differences as a strength and takes this into account in all areas
of its business. The organization accommodates the nature and extent of individual differences, and
creates teams of individuals who have complimentary skills.
2) Make usability and accessibility strategic business objectives
The human-centred organization uses International Standards and best practices to ensure that
products, systems and services are accessible and usable (effective, efficient and satisfying to use) both
by personnel and by other stakeholders.
3) Adopt a total system approach
The organization recognizes that people are part of a comprehensive system, which can include many
elements such as equipment, workspace, and the physical, social and organizational environment in
which people work and live. These elements interact and are interdependent, and the organization
understands this and acts accordingly.
4) Ensure that health, safety and wellbeing are business priorities
The organization takes the necessary steps to protect individuals (both inside and outside the
organization) from hazards to their health, safety and wellbeing, and aims to exceed the minimum
requirements required by legislation.
5) Value personnel and create meaningful work
The organization values and acknowledges the contribution that personnel make. It strives to create
meaningful tasks for all potential users of the system. The intent for this principle is not to develop

SIST EN ISO 27501:2019
ISO 27501:2019(E)

a workplace within which a worker simply “survives” (passive vision), but to create an environment
within which to live and thrive as a meaningful part of the organization’s objectives and work.
6) Be open and trustworthy
The organization benefits from being open and trustworthy through enhanced customer relations
(internal and external), user confidence, and increased loyalty, as well as an enhanced reputation.
7) Act in socially responsible ways
The organization is socially responsible. It behaves ethically and instils pride and confidence in its
personnel, customers, and the local community. It does this by following the recommendations in
ISO 26000.
4.2 Ergonomics/human factors
Ergonomics (or human factors), by definition, is human-centred. As detailed in ISO 26800, ergonomics
addresses the interactions between humans and the other components of a system, such as, machines,
products, services, environments and tools. All of these are integrally important in order to achieve a
human-centred organization. Although the terms human factors and ergonomics are synonymous, the
remainder of this document uses “ergonomics” for expediency.
The ergonomics approach helps to support and maintain a human-centred organization in its regular
maintenance and operation of systems and whenever systems are being designed, redesigned and
improved.
The ergonomics approach and its associated methodologies can be applied to any system, whether
that system is one that is internal to the organization (such as the organization’s intranet), or one that
includes external stakeholders (such as the design of a product which the organization intends to sell).
An ergonomics approach can also be applied to the organization as a whole (i.e. the organization itself
can be considered as a “system.”) In addition to ergonomics, there are also other types of considerations
which organizations address as a part of being human-centred (see other standards listed in Annex B
for examples).
Figure 1 represents the relationship between this document and ISO 27500. It shows how the
responsibilities in question in each of the two International Standards differ, based on the target
audience for each standard (i.e. either executive board members and policy makers or other levels
of management). It also includes some key references on which this document is based. ISO 27500
contributes to the organization’s strategic planning for ergonomics (shown on the left-hand side of the
figure) and other activities of the organization (shown on the right).

5 Stakeholders and management levels
5.1 Stakeholders and value co-creation
Stakeholders can affect the organization, and the organization can affect stakeholders. Human-centred
organizations and their stakeholders co-create values through their relationships and interactions.
Stakeholder groups in the framework include management, employees and/or their representatives,
customers and society. Managers and employees and/or their representatives are examples of internal
stakeholders to the organization and customers are examples of external stakeholders. There are
societal stakeholders in terms of cultural norms and expectations (e.g., regulatory bodies, communities
of operation, environmental organizations, investors).
[25][27][29][30]
Value is “co-created” among stakeholders, and the benefits are realized by all parties . Co-
creation values are categorized into:
— fundamental value;
— knowledge value; and
[28]
— emotional value .
Fundamental value refers to the value that is expected by stakeholder
