Ergonomics has developed as an application of knowledge accumulation in very different qualities that can improve the efficiency of human performance in different directions. Ergonomics which is also related to different branches of science covers a wide range of applications. Ergonomics has great importance in determining both sensual, perceptual and mental evaluations and anthropometric requirements of the user. The factors in perception must also be taken into account in the evaluation of the environment perceived by human being, making an ergonomic assessment in particular requires having an ergonomic perception in this sense. The perception of ergonomics can be achieved by acquiring knowledge or training in this field. This study was conducted to measure the perception of ergonomics. 220 active students in the Vocational High School of Technical Sciences and 342 employees working in garment enterprises participated in the study. As a result of the analyzes, it was revealed what the perceptions of the ergonomics of the students and employees participated in the study are, and some suggestions were made. © Springer International Publishing AG 2018.
