PRUNIER-POULMAIRE, Sophie  and  BARTHE, Béatrice. Atypical working times and human temporalities: the requirement for an interdisciplinary approach in ergonomics.Translated byMarta Santos,  Augusto Rogério Leitão.

The article by Charles Gadbois, published 30 years ago, proposes, in a forward-looking approach, lines of work to develop research in ergonomics on atypical working times. Based on the premise that there was a lack of knowledge on the issues raised by these rapidly expanding schedules, Charles Gadbois defended the importance of calling on and articulating several disciplines to deal with this complex problem as well as the need to design new models integrating the real activity. Since then, the development of ergonomics as an interdisciplinary science and the pursuit of work on atypical working time has led us to propose a systemic and multifactorial approach for research and action on working time. An original approach that identifies a set of dimensions crossed by the issue of atypical working time, in which work activity and conciliation activity contribute to maintaining balance.

Keywords : atypical working hours; ergonomics; research; interdisciplinarity; working time.
