Ergonomic Workstation Assessment: Key Factors for Workplace Safety

Critical Considerations

1. Work Surface Height: Should be adjustable or set so the employee's arms rest comfortably while typing/working, preventing neck, shoulder, and wrist strain.
2. Chair Adjustability: Must provide proper lumbar support and allow feet to rest flat on the floor.

Goal

An ergonomically correct workstation promotes employee health, well-being, and productivity by minimizing musculoskeletal strain and fatigue.
