What is ergonomics and why is it important in the workplace? Having good ergonomic office supply practices in the workplace can improve your productivity.
Since the COVID-19 outbreak, working from home (WFH) has become the norm for millions of employees all around the world. How many of you began working from your kitchen tables, living room sofas, or on your beds? Does your neck suddenly hurt? Is your lower back yelling at you? Or what’s that tingling feeling in your wrist? If you are experiencing any of these unusual aches, pains, or other physical insults, your body is trying to tell you it’s unhappy. To solve the problem, it is crucial that you have the right ergonomic office setup. On this page, we will introduce what ergonomics is and why it is important. In addition, we will suggest some ergonomic office supplies.
What is Ergonomics and Why is it Important?
Ergonomics is the study of how people interact with the tools they use. Ergonomic researchers seek ways to improve the design of tools in order to improve the user experience. The reason why ergonomics is important is that having good ergonomic practices can improve your productivity as well as your health. To be more precise, ergonomics helps in the design of the workplace to promote safety, health, comfort, and performance while reducing the chance of accidents. Therefore, we strongly recommend that people implement these ergonomic measures to make their work experience safe and productive, whether they're working from home temporarily or permanently.
4 Types of Ergonomic Office Supplies
Having proper posture while working plays a key role. Make sure your feet are flat on the floor and your legs are bent at a nearly 90-degree angle. Always keep your neck erect and your ears in line with your shoulders. Your arms should be at your sides, elbows close to your body, and you should be able to type with your elbows bent 90 to 110-degrees.
