Environmental Ergonomics

Environmental ergonomics is the study of how our surroundings, including physical spaces, lighting, temperature, and noise, affect our comfort, performance, and well-being. It focuses on designing workspaces and environments to fit human needs, enhancing productivity and reducing stress. For example, an ergonomically designed office considers furniture arrangement, screen placement, and ambient noise levels to create a more efficient and comfortable work environment. By optimizing these factors, environmental ergonomics aims to improve our health and job satisfaction in various settings, from workplaces to public spaces.
