Office Ergonomics: Ease and Efficiency at Work, Second Edition
Autor Anne D. Kroemer, Karl H. E. Kroemeren Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 oct 2024
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 café, 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
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.
