Ergonomics is the science of designing workspaces, tools, and tasks to fit the physical capabilities and limitations of the people using them, reducing injury risk and improving comfort and productivity. Ergonomists and occupational health specialists assess workstations, equipment, and processes in offices, factories, and healthcare settings to prevent repetitive strain injuries and musculoskeletal disorders. It is a key consideration in industrial design, human factors engineering, and workplace safety programs.
