Hello, and welcome to blog on Ergonomics. This program has been designed to inform you all about Ergonomics, and to help you improve your workplace or office so that it complies with Ergonomic standards.
The International Ergonomics Association defines Ergonomics as "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". This essentially means the science of designing equipment to better suit the human body and human activity.

Some people typically think of Ergonomics as specifically the way companies design work areas to improve and increase efficiency from the employees, but Ergonomics is in fact relative to all aspects of every day life, including recreation, working environments, health and safety.
