Based on the knowledge, experience and evidence gathered during the author's years of professional activity in Iran, eighteen important "lessons learned" about the initiation, design and implementation of ergonomics intervention programmes in industries and companies in developing countries, with a focus on Iran, are offered. Briefly, a short report of four ergonomics projects implemented in Iran is given, and then policy suggestions are expressed in most of the lessons. These lessons are derived from the author's practical projects as an ergonomics manager and show key points to increase the success of ergonomics projects and to expand and sustain ergonomics in industries and companies.
