Abstract

Purpose: This article examines the interconnections between wellbeing and ergonomics in the context of the vision of society 5.0, which focuses on advanced technologies supporting human well-being. The focus is on how ergonomics, supported by artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT) and other technologies, can contribute to improving the quality of life. Design/Methodology/Approach: Literature and available research on the application of ergonomics in the work environment and everyday life were analyzed. The collected data were compared with the concepts of society 5.0. Findings: Integrating technology with ergonomics leads to reduced health problems, increased productivity and improved mental well-being. Examples of implementations include intelligent posture monitoring systems and solutions supporting work-life balance. Practical Implications: The article emphasizes that ergonomics supported by modern technologies is not only a tool for improving health, but also a key to building a sustainable society. Originality/Value: The study connects the concept of wellbeing with the technological aspect of society 5.0, pointing to innovative approaches to holistic well-being.
