About "Ergonomics" topic:

The term “ergonomics” is derived from two Greek words: “ergon”, meaning work and “nomoi”, meaning natural laws. Ergonomists study human capabilities in relationship to work demands. It is the science of designing the job, equipment, and workplace to fit the worker. Proper ergonomic design is necessary to prevent repetitive strain injuries, which can develop over time and can lead to long-term disability.

Ergonomics is the study of how work is done and how to work better. If ergnomics is followed, it increases the efficiency of a person.

	The simple answer is to make sure that the body is not compromised at all in the work place. Ensure your body position and posture is conducive to comfort and that you have minimal distraction from physical discomfort.
