What is Ergonomics? • “Ergonomics is an applied science concerned with the design of workplaces, tools, and tasks that match the physiological, anatomical, and psychological characteristics and capabilities of the worker. ” Vern Putz-Anderson • “The Goal of ergonomics is to ‘fit the job to the person, ’ rather than making the person fit the job. ” Ergotech • “If it hurts when you are doing something, don’t do it. ” Bill Black ERGONOMICS : : TRAIN-THE-TRAINER PROGRAM
Evolution of Ergonomics • Dates back to Ramazzini 1700’s • Gained significance during WWII for airplane cockpit layout • Progressed slowly until the 80’s and 90’s with the advent of the computer and more efficient workplace design • Now, guidelines are in place and greater use of technology ERGONOMICS : : TRAIN-THE-TRAINER PROGRAM
