    http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/mining/topics/topicpage24.htm
    
    Extractions: Ergonomics is the science of designing tasks, equipment, tools, and the work environment to accommodate the capabilities and limitations of the majority of the workforce. Ergonomics enhances human performance including the health, safety and productivity of workers. A primary focus of efforts in this area has been to promote the musculoskeletal health of miners by reducing exposure to awkward postures, high force exertions, and repetition posed by mining tasks. The work in this topic area is supported by the NIOSH Mining Ergonomics program. See the NIOSH Mining Products page for software, guides, training materials or other items related to this topic. Despite the many unique challenges in the mining environment, three mining companies partnered with the MSD Prevention Team at NIOSH PRL to demonstrate that an ergonomics process could be systematically implemented and effectively integrated with existing safety and health programs. A description of how these three companies applied ergonomics and the tools and training used to implement their processes is given.

    Office ergonomics guidelines for seated or computer work Home. Low Back pain ergonomics. Eyestrain Basics. Hand and Arm Basics. Ergonomic products pros/cons  
    http://office-ergo.com/
    
    Extractions: Office Ergonomics Training This site contains office ergonomics information aimed at ergonomics committee members as well as office workers in general. The information here is based on the research literature whenever possible; it may not be consistent with some of the conventional wisdom that has persisted for decades, such as "sit up straight" or "have the monitor at eye level" or "the keyboard should be at elbow height." Office ergonomics deserves to be treated separately from general (industrial) ergonomics. The principles are the same, but there are so many subtle differences and different products that it's best to specialize. This site collects and publishes some "handouts" that have been used widely in training courses for office workers and ergonomists and health care professionals who work with office workers. The handouts have received good reviews with respect to their clarity, objectivity, and scientific basis. Some have been published in slightly different form in book chapters and manuals. We are pleased to share them with you. This site was developed by Chris Grant, PhD, now retired from ergonomics. Her Michigan-based ergonomics practice, F-One Ergonomics, was limited to office-related issues. Dr. Grant and other cited authors on the site are Certified Professional Ergonomists and Certified Industrial Ergonomists who have consulted in this field for years and have been involved in the development of national and international ergonomics standards. Dr. Grant has generously transferred the site to Dennis Ankrum, who will strive to maintain the standard of excellence she has set.

    Extractions: The goal of the OERC is to better understand the human and machine system that is comprised of the people who use office, information and communication technologies in a broad variety of settings. A fuller understanding of this interaction facilitates better product designs and more comfortable and productive human users. By design, OERC members represent a diverse group of organizations with a common interest in complex human-machine systems, commonly referred to as office ergonomics. The members combine their knowledge and resources to both encourage and support the study of the many factors involved in this system.

That is not the most efficient definition of what ergonomics is. Let us keep things simple. Ergonomics is the science of making things comfy. It also makes things efficient. And when you think about it, comfy just another way of making things efficient. However for simplicity, ergonomics makes things comfortable and efficient. What is Ergonomics?
