Ergonomic Analysis
Ergonomics is the analysis and application of scientific information relating to the design of objects, systems and environment for human use. It encompasses everything that involves people such as work systems, sports & leisure and most importantly health and safety.
Ergonomics concerns everyone at work and is about:
- Designing workplaces, equipment and tasks to fit the worker
- Making work and equipment safer, easier and more productive
- Improving health & safety, by reducing accidents and cumulative injuries
- Improving job satisfaction
- Ensuring you fulfil legal requirements
