A Word about Ergonomics Ergonomics is the study of how people with their different physical characteristics and ways of functioning relate to their working environment (the furnishings and machines they use). The goal of Ergonomics is to incorporate comfort, efficiency, and safety into the design of keyboards, computer desks, chairs, and other items in an effort to prevent physical discomfort and health problems in the working environment.
