| Abstract: | This paper is not so much a synthesis as a reflection on work analysis in French language ergonomics. It is structured around two questions. First, how is francophone analysis positioned in relation to other developments which themselves have attempted to describe work—like anglophone taxonomy? Second, how has francophone analysis evolved? The author suggests that the evolution reveals a shift. Gradually, over the years, questions of meaning and analysis have taken on a greater importance. This shift appears clearly, in work analysis and verbalization, two topics which are discussed in the paper. |
