Office Ergonomics
Introduction
Offices vary from multi-storeyed, air conditioned buildings to small areas that are part of warehouses, factories, hospitals and homes. While hazards in the office may not always be as obvious as those in factories, office workers may also face a range of health and safety issues, including poor job design, prolonged repetitive work, moving heavy loads, inadequate lighting and cramped or unsafe work areas.
The information on these pages is offered to assist in raising awareness of health and safety issues in the office, and to help in identifying existing and potential health and safety problems in office environments.
