ERGONOMICS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


WHAT IS ERGONOMICS?

Ergonomics, often referred to as human factors or human engineering, is the
scientific discipline that studies the interactions between humans and their
environment, with a primary focus on designing systems, products, and
environments that optimize human well-being and overall performance.


WHY IS WORKPLACE ERGONOMICS IMPORTANT?

 * Ergonomics is crucial for several reasons, as it directly impacts the
   well-being and productivity of individuals in various settings.
 * It focuses on designing workspaces for individual employees to reduce the
   risk of developing musculoskeletal disorders, such as back pain, carpal
   tunnel syndrome, and neck strain.
 * It promotes optimal working conditions by increasing comfort and reducing
   discomfort, allowing individuals to maintain higher levels of concentration
   and productivity over extended periods.
 * It improves job satisfaction, as comfortable and well-designed workspaces
   contribute to employee satisfaction and morale, reducing absenteeism and
   turnover rates.
 * It boosts productivity by streamlining work processes and aligning tools and
   equipment with human capabilities, resulting in improved efficiency and
   performance.
 * It reduces healthcare costs by preventing workplace injuries and health
   issues related to poor workspace design, leading to reduced healthcare
   expenses and workers’ compensation claims.
 * It accommodates all employees by considering the diverse needs of
   individuals, taking into account factors such as height, weight, and physical
   abilities, ensuring that workspaces are adaptable to a wide range of
   employees.


WHAT ARE ERGONOMICS RISKS?

 * What many people refer to as “ergonomic risks” are actually musculoskeletal
   disorder (MSD) risks. MSDs are soft-tissue injuries caused by long-term
   exposure to repetitive motion, force, vibration, and awkward positions. We
   use the principle of ergonomics to assess jobs and workspaces for MSD risk
   and implement positive changes to fit the workspace to the worker, greatly
   reducing their likelihood of developing an MSD.
 * The most common risks for developing MSDs are high force, awkward posture,
   and long duration or high frequency.
