typically efficiency is part of the consideration of ergonomics.
See:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ergonomics
Quote: «Ergonomics (or human factors) is the scientific discipline
concerned with the understanding of interactions among humans and
other elements of a system, and the profession that applies theory,
principles, data and methods to design in order to optimize human well-
being and overall system performance.»
Note the last few words: “... and overall system performance”.
