Ergonomics is the science of fitting tasks to employees rather than forcing people to fit jobs to them. It focuses on creating safe, efficient, and comfortable workplaces, tools, and work duties.

Because work injuries are not unavoidable, and a well-designed job should not injure you, ergonomics aims to reduce fatigue and injuries while also increasing comfort, productivity, job satisfaction, and safety.

Ergonomics is crucial since your musculoskeletal system is influenced when you're working and your body is strained by an inconvenient posture, severe temperature, or repeated movement.

Symptoms such as weariness, discomfort, and pain may appear in your body, and they might be the earliest signs of a musculoskeletal issue.
