What is “Ergonomics”

The term “ergonomics” is derived from the Greek word ergon meaning work, and nomoi meaning natural laws. It is the science of refining product process and tool design to make them easier or safer for human use. Ergonomics is frequently referred to as human factors engineering.

Computer desks and chairs are frequently the focus of ergonomic design. Many people use these products for long periods for work, study or gaming. If these products are not well designed or not flexible enough to adjust to a person’s work style, the user may suffer fatigue, stress, or even injury.

Ergonomics brings the element of human use to the problems of people trying to adjusting to their environment. Ergonomics is a science that helps improve products, processes and tools to help people work and live better while helping prevent injury.

The Risk of Sitting Too Long

Newton’s first law of motion states that a body at rest tends to stay at rest. This law also holds true for the human body. If a person wants to be able to keep moving as they age, they must move more now! And not just as a daily exercise, but ALL DAY!

New studies point to serious health risks from too much sitting. Sitting may seem like a harmless activity (or non-activity), but it has been linked to an increased risk for cancer, heart disease, diabetes and a shortened lifespan.

Here are some statistics from recent studies:

  • Men who are sitting for five or more hours a day before or after work are at least 34 percent more likely to experience heart failure than men who sit for two hours or less. That is independent of how much they exercise.
  • Prolonged sitting increases the risk of fatal cancers by 21 percent – even with regular exercise.
  • Time spent being inactive has a stronger link to diabetes markers than total physical activity.
  • People who watch six hours of TV per day (on average) can expect a life expectancy shortened by five years compared to people who watch no TV.
  • Sitting for 11 hours a day is linked to a 40 percent higher risk of dying in the next three years compared to those who sit for four hours a day.

The Benefits of Ergonomics and a Standing Desk

According to the Harvard Medical School using a standing desk:

  • burns more calories than you would sitting
  • reduces the risk of shoulder and back pain
  • helps blood sugar levels return to normal more rapidly after eating
  • keeps energy levels high and promotes good metabolism
  • potentially counteract all the detriments of lengthy sitting

Researchers at Texas A&M University’s Health Science Center School of Public Health determined that:

  • standing desks improve productivity
  • make it easier to maintain mobility
  • Allow more movement throughout the day.

The Definition Of Ergonomics

Ergonomics is a science that helps improve products,
processes and tools to help people work and live better while helping prevent injury.
Ergonomics is not a slogan.

The Economics of Ergonomics

The annual cost to U.S. business of lost-time workplace injuries is greater than the gross domestic product (GDP) of 91 countries, according to data from the World Monetary Fund. Workplace MSD (Musculoskeletal Disorders) injuries and accidents that cause employees to miss six or more days of work cost U.S. employers nearly $62 billion in 2013, the most recent year for which statistically valid injury data is available from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and the National Academy of Social Insurance, according to the 2016 Liberty Mutual Workplace Safety Index. That is more than $1billion per week spent on the most disabling, nonfatal workplace injuries.
