Resources
Today’s modern office can be very demanding on the office worker therefore
it is very important to get the Office Ergonomics right. Ergonomics is a science,
which addresses human performance and well being in relation to the job, equipment
and work environment. Office Ergonomics is that the whole working environment
as well as the office equipment should be comfortable and safe. Essential aspect
of good office ergonomics is an environment, which encourages correct posture
and safe working practices. The term ergonomics is derived from the Greek word
ergos meaning "work" and nomos meaning "natural laws of" or "study
of." The profession has two main branches with considerable overlap. One
discipline sometimes referred to as "industrial ergonomics," or "occupational
biomechanics," focuses on the physical aspects of work and human capabilities
such as force, posture, and repetition. A second branch, sometimes referred to
as "human factors," is oriented to the psychological aspects of work
such as mental loading and decision-making.
