What is Ergonomics?
Ergonomics is a scientific discipline which is derived from the Greek word ergos (work) and nomos (natural law). It literally means the science of work and is concerned with removing barriers to quality, productivity and safe human performance by fitting products tasks and environments to people.

This means that when designing a piece of equipment, an ergonomist aims to optimise human well-being and overall system performance by taking into account human anatomy and physiology rather than basing the design on aesthetics or storage capabilities. In other words, the aim is to ensure that a human can work efficiently and without discomfort in a certain setting.
