Ergonomic Assessment

Ergonomic Assessment is a systematic evaluation procedure within occupational health science that identifies and analyzes biomechanical, physiological, and environmental factors in a work setting to determine their impact on human performance, safety, and musculoskeletal well-being, thereby distinguishing it from general health screenings by its focused integration of human anatomy, work demands, and preventive design principles.
