Ergonomics II

1}Ergonomics is the science of designing the job, equipment & workplace to suit the worker while taking care of other things like the job, the budget and the time the worker spends in his workplace. Not only this it also uses biology to think about the environment the worker need for bringing out his highest potential for e.g the color of the walls might affect the workers' mood and also his work.

2/3} The 5 aspects of ergonomics are

• Safety{For example the size of the font on medicine bottles must be enlarged for maximum readability.}
• Comfort{For example the chair cushion or the height of the table could affect the worker by causing him discomfort}
• Ease of use{For example if the chair wheels are very rusty the worker will not be able to move and not access different sources easily}
• Productivity/Performance{For example as seen in the video if there is no way the worker can use his laptop easily his work productivity will de-prove}
• Aesthetics{For example if the signs in the workplace all have different fonts and sizes the worker might find it hard to comprehend and have problem with his work}
