Office ergonomics - whether we realize it or not - directly or
indirectly affects every one of us. It is the study of the work we
do, the environment we work in, and the tools we use to
successfully perform our jobs. Office ergonomics helps us be
comfortable and safe at work, which reduces the risk of injury,
lowers stress, increases personal engagement, and raises overall
work performance. This book embraces and addresses the new reality
of the traditional 'office' work, which is ever changing and
evolving, and offers tactical recommendations on how to make
non-traditional office settings more comfortable. This book
suggests how to Set up the office, wherever that may be - at a
company site, at home, at a corner cafe, on a commuter train
Interact with colleagues Organize and pace work Select and arrange
equipment and furniture Maintain the physical climate - lighting,
sound, heating and cooling The book is a practical one, based on
sound theory and solid research. Written for non-engineers as well
as those in the industry, it has a conversational tone, reflects
true-life situations that office workers face, and is adaptable to
multiple office settings. While budding ergonomists will find it
educational, office managers and designers will benefit from it as
well. You will find ten fast-paced chapters, augmented with brief
case studies and illustrations, and capped off with a series of
practical design recommendations. Three appendices delve into
ergonomic topics with more thorough details. This book suggests how
best to achieve a harmonious work scenario by optimizing the 'fit'
between the person and his or her environment. This, in a nutshell,
is what ergonomics is all about: working with ease and efficiency.
