Both describe the interaction between the worker and the job demands. The difference between them is ergonomics focuses on how work affects workers, and human factors emphasizes designs that reduce the potential for human error. Ergonomic hazards refer to workplace conditions that pose the risk of injury to the musculoskeletal system of the worker. Examples of musculoskeletal injuries include tennis elbow (an inflammation of a tendon in the elbow) and carpal tunnel syndrome (a condition affecting the hand and wrist). Ergonomic hazards include repetitive and forceful movements, vibration, temperature extremes, and awkward postures that arise from improper work methods and improperly designed workstations, tools, and equipment.

Ergonomics The word, ergonomics, is derived from the greek words ergos meaning "work" and nomos meaning "laws"; therefore, we have the laws of work. Ergonomics can be further defined as the design of the workplace, equipment, machine, tool, product, environment, and system, taking into consideration human's physical, physiological, biomechanical, and psychological capabilities. Other related and similar terms are: Human Factors Human Factors Engineering Human Engineering Engineering Psychology Fitting the task to the individual The application of ergonomic principles can result in: increased productivity improved health and safety increased job satisfaction increased work quality lower worker turnover lower lost time at work lower worker's compensation claims less likelihood of OSHA fines Industrial vs Office Ergonomics Different types of assembly processes have different risks for musculoskeletal disorders. Progressive assembly versus non-progressive assembly, machine paced versus self paced, piece part versus hourly pay all have unique concerns relative to musculoskeletal illnesses and injuries.

110. Human Factors Engineering human factors consultant specializing in medical device and pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment ergonomics, especially where automation is a critical component. (US) http://www.samaras-assoc.com/ergonomics.htm

Human Factors Engineering (No longer a luxury for FDA-regulated firms) Human factors engineering (ergonomics) is all about designing tools for human use . More formally, it is the scientific discipline concerned with the interaction between humans and artifacts and the design of systems where people participate. We have long believed that the FDA , once it resolved its hardware and software design & maintenance safety and effectiveness issues, would turn its attention to ergonomics. In fact, many believe that user errors may be the last bastion of equipment safety and effectiveness problems. The CDRH has recently put up a new section on its web site " Reducing Use Erro r". Even before the recent Institute of Medicine's report " To Err is Human ", the FDA was beginning to interpret the recent Quality System Regulation ( ) in the context of ergonomics issues. Consider the following examples: Human Factors Implications of the New GMP Rule Incorporating Human Factors in Risk Management Human Factors and the FDA's Goals:Improved Medical Device Design Some related CDRH Human Factors Publications Establishing and promoting an effective corporate human factors engineering program is not only a current regulatory compliance issue; it is very good for the Corporate bottom line. Products that are "ergonomically correct" are: much more desirable to users (users become more productive)
