Ergonomics I-Question 3

What are the considerations that should be taken into account when designing a workplace that is suitable for the user?

The working environment must provide optimum comfort, so the place should be very simple and plain. The background of the office must not be colours like pink or purple but rather colours like white and black, although too much black is not very appropriate. The seats must be comfortable so the person will not worry too much such that it will hinder one's work rate. The table must have the things necessary, with redundant things being excluded as they will occupy too much space on the desk. Having little things or simple ones will naturally make the place more stress-free. The computer screen must be at a certain distance from the person so that the words can be seen more clearly, thus carrying work out easily. The lighting should also be good, but no too intense such that it will affect the person's eyesight.
