Participatory Ergonomics PE is used as an implementation strategy to prevent these symptoms. By following the steps of PE working groups composed and prioritised ergonomic measures and developed an implementation plan. Working group members were responsible to implement the ergonomic measures in their departments. Little is known about factors that hamper barriers or enhance facilitators the implementation of ergonomic measures. This study aimed to identify and understand the possible barriers and facilitators that were perceived during implementation. Methods This study is embedded in a cluster randomised controlled trial that investigated the effectiveness of PE to prevent LBP and NP among workers. For the purpose of the current study questionnaires were sent to 81 working group members. Their answers were used to make a first inventory of possible barriers and facilitators to implementation. Based on the questionnaire information 15 semi-structured interviews were held to explore the barriers and facilitators in more detail. All interviews were audio taped transcribed verbatim and analysed according to a systematic approach. Results All possible barriers and facilitators were obtained from questionnaire data indicating that the semistructured interviews did not yield information about new factors. Various barriers and facilitators were experienced. The presence of implementation plans for ergonomic measures that were already approved by the management facilitated implementation .
