Ergonomics is an important and exciting field of study into how workspaces can be better adjusted to the people that use it. There is increasing evidence that unbalanced working positions slow down employee productivity in the long run and can lead to health risks, as well.
Both sitting in front of a computer all day and standing for long hours performing repetitive work is straining on the human body. Common employee complaints include back pain, wrist injuries, headaches, fatigue and poor posture.
Ergonomics can help deal with such complaints and find solutions that make the workplace safer and healthier. Not only will your staff be happier, their productivity will also improve.
Investing in ergonomics is investing in your team and the future of your business.
