Embodiments are directed to ergonomic monitoring. A plurality of diverse motion-assessment sensors are incorporated into a garment. Output from groups of diverse sensors associated with corresponding regions of the garment is obtained. Predefined movements by a wearer of the garment are recognized. The predefined movements are associated with respective parameters that represent characteristics of the movements. The values of the parameters are determined, and an ergonomic impact of any of the recognized movements is assessed based on the recognized movements, the parameter values, and predefined ergonomic impact criteria.
