What is ergonomics?
Fitting the workspace and equipment to fit with our body size to perform work comfortably and sustainably
Fitting our body size to fit with the workspace and equipment to perform work comfortably and sustainably
The science of interaction between the design of object and environment in improving overall system performance
Ergonomics is divided into 3 areas except for:
Cognitive
Physical
Psychological
Organizational
Below are examples of ergonomic risk factors except,
Working in standing position for more than 2 hours
Repetitive shoulder movement for 3 hours without break

HFE is part of influencing ____ factors, where we design workplace to optimise task performance and minimise design-induced error
Individual
Job
Organization
Environment
Below are the benefits on proper implementation of Human Factor Engineering (HFE) except,
Reduce capital expenditure (CAPEX) by contributing to more efficient design and avoiding the need for changes and/or re-work at later stage of project
Eliminate or reduce potential of human error and its consequences
Reduce occupational and process safety HSE risks of facilities
Low human efficiency and productivity, thereby decreasing operational performance
The following are the ways to minimise the risk of manual handling except,
Use lifting support/tools
Reduce or divide weight of load
Elbow at 90°
Clear obstruction of floor/pathway
