Overview
The Ergonomics and Human Factors Engineering course is designed to help learners understand how to design workplaces, systems, and tools that improve human performance, safety, and wellbeing. Ergonomics focuses on adapting work environments to fit people, rather than forcing people to adapt to poorly designed systems. This course is ideal for professionals in health and safety, engineering, manufacturing, office administration, and industrial design.
Learners will explore key principles of ergonomics, including human anatomy, posture, workplace design, cognitive load, and interaction between humans and machines. The course also covers risk factors such as repetitive strain injuries, poor workstation setup, and workplace fatigue. Emphasis is placed on improving productivity while reducing injuries and discomfort.
In addition, the program introduces human factors engineering concepts used in designing systems, tools, and processes that enhance usability and reduce errors. Real-world case studies demonstrate how ergonomic improvements increase efficiency and safety in workplaces. By the end of the course, participants will be able to assess workplace risks, apply ergonomic principles, and design safer, more efficient working environments.
Learning Outcomes
- Understand principles of ergonomics and human factors
- Identify workplace hazards related to poor design
- Improve workstation setup and posture design
