Ergonomics is the study of optimizing the interface between human beings and designed objects and environments. It aims to improve work performance by removing sources of stress and fatigue through factors like easy-to-view data presentation, comfortable furniture, and a pleasant work environment. Ergonomics applies scientific principles to optimize human well-being and system performance in areas like physical, cognitive, and organizational ergonomics. Implementing ergonomics principles in design leads to benefits like increased safety, reduced human error, improved usability, and lower costs.

1. With the advent of texting, laptops, notebooks, iPads, tablets, and the like, are humans
working in a more ergonomically correct society, or a less ergonomically correct society?
2. What can or should technology do to provide ergonomic solutions for new products?
3. Is it the manufacturer’s responsibility, or the user’s responsibility to find ergonomic solutions?
Solution
1.With the development of present technology there is a wide usage of
iPads,tablets,laptops,notebooks etc., due to which every person in the universe is very excited
and also got addicted to use such things that makes our life easy and simple. But to the prior,
every person must check about the ergonomics in using these things which are a boon as well as
a curse.
With the aggressive advancement and increased complexity of technical equipment in the 1940s
– it was soon realized that not all benefits of the equipment would be delivered if users did not
understand how to correctly use it. Alphonse Chapanis, a Lieutenant during World War II, most
notably redesigned aircraft controls using ergonomic principles. In applying these principles,
control panel ease-of-use was increased and ultimately helped reduce the number of crashes that
had, until then, been attribute to pilot error.
The term ergonomics was coined – from the Greek roots (ergon and nomos) – at a 1949 meeting
of world-renowned physiologists and psychologists. Later in 1949, this same body of scientists
and like-minded colleagues formed the Ergonomics Research Society, or ERS, which became the
first such professional body in the world. The group continued to evolve with the changing
workplace landscape and begin to incorporate other factors such as workplace layout, light, heat,
noise – more physical aspects. The organization is now known as the Institute of Ergonomics and
Human Factors (IEHF) and continues to study the benefits and factors that effect people both
inside and outside of the workplace.
To me, this is a less ergonomically correct society. Human working has become stressed and
even more than stressed. All this is due to development in technology which is leading to the
callous of the world and even there is running a cold war between each person in this world. Due
to over stress, every human is suffering from some or the other disease. According to some
recent survey, every human almost all 87% of human population is suffering from some or the
other brain disease. This is due to stress in the office who are working in the age of 27-40yrs old.
So, I think this is something very less ergonomically correct society.

Computer Assisted System for Enhancing the Application of Ergonomics in Manuf...Waqas Tariq
The current paper focuses on the need and a plan for the development of a Computer Assisted Interactive and Intelligent Ergonomics System which, through a user friendly consulting mode presents the guidelines and formalized procedures for the application of ergonomics knowledge and data in manufacturing organizations. The system is expected to allow a production engineer or supervisor or even a worker with minimal ergonomics knowledge, to understand, analyze and find solutions to problems related to industrial ergonomics. A survey which is conducted in this regard is also described in this paper and through the out come of the survey it is shown that the poor acceptance and application of ergonomics is due to lack of exposure to ergonomics knowledge and non-availability of ergonomics knowledge in a suitable form for its application in manufacturing systems. 10
To improve and enlightening production ergonomics is a search widespread to numerous organizations in diverse engineering and management zones. At the foundation is an ambition to eradicate hazards for job concerned musculoskeletal disorders, but recent observations on ergonomics have developed the discipline from a merely physiological, anthropometrical, and Psychosocial influential apprehension to an organizational, systems performance discipline. This research recommends that in an organization ergonomics infrastructure is made up of the structural, technical, executive and stakeholder comparative circumstances that allow or obstruct development of ergonomics. These circumstances spotlight on the positioning of diverse employees towards ergonomics concerns in an organization, the relationships between user, workers or employees, scenario, scheme and strategy they use for arguments, and the manipulate that occur from industry-particular culture, insolences and technical incorporation (or elimination) of ergonomics into engineering and production progressions. The information deduced from the research in this paper has been produced together with pertinent theoretical perceptions originated in the literature, into a Tentative Agenda which conducts empirical data assembly intended at planning the ergonomics infrastructure in an organization. Its step-by-step methodical appraisal of circumstances at diverse hierarchical levels in the organization should serve ergonomics experts and managers alike in classifying pathways and obstructions to improve production ergonomics.

Ergonomics (ergon=work nomoi= natural laws/study)
Ergonomics is the study of optimizing the interface between human beings and the designed
objects and environments they interact with.
An ergonomically designed product implies that the device blends smoothly with a person’s body
or actions.
It is also the science of people- machine relationships.
3. Cont..
3
Study of the relationship between people and the furniture,
tools, and
machinery they use at work.
The object is to improve work performance by removing sources of muscular stress and general
fatigue,
For example by presenting data and control panels in easy-to-view form,
making office furniture comfortable,
and creating a generally pleasant environment.

11. Human Factors
11
Human factors is a set of structured methods and principles for identification, quantification and
evaluation of the user’s needs and tasks for the development of systems, products, services and
environments
Human Factors is a term mainly used in the United States.
In Europe and the rest of the world, the term ergonomics is more prevalent.
It is the study of how humans behave physically and psychologically in relation to particular
environments, products, or services.
The term usability is sometimes used as an alternative to ERGONOMY.
Although human factors is really a larger area of study, including responses that are unrelated to
usability, such as reactions and preferences in relation to visual and other sensory stimuli.
12. Benefits gained by implementing Human Factors in a development and a
modification project 12
