What is Ergonomics?


What is Ergonomics?
Ergonomics is the study of how people fit in their work environment.

Ergonomic improvements don't have to involve expensive ergonomic chairs, mouse, workstation products, tools or desks. Ergonomics in the office can usually combine an ergonomic assessment and setup along with helpful preventative ergonomic advice. 
It is often not what we are sitting upon or standing at, but rather how we hold our body or perform the tasks that causes workplace injury.
Advice about correct trunk posture can improve your spine, head and neck alignment that results in a less fatigue when sitting at a desk for prolonged periods of time. Often a simple product will assist or remind you how to position yourself in your work or home environment.
