Designing Ergonomic Packing
and Workplace Systems
What does ergonomic mean?
Ergonomics as a science is concerned with how humans execute work. The term is comprised from the Greek ἔργον (ergon) = work and νόμος (nomos) = natural law. The central aim of ergonomics is to create appropriate conditions for the execution of work and the use of technical equipment and tools. Alongside designing user-friendly working systems and working spaces, the focus especially lies on enhancing the connection between user (human) and object (machine).
Why create and use ergonomic workplaces?
Ergonomic workplaces increase well-being and therefore raise motivation and performance. Furthermore, the level of sick leave and fluctuation is reduced. In summary: Ergonomics guarantees higher productivity.

What is unique about an ergonomic workplace?
Technical solutions
Measures that prevent the occurrence of unbalanced strain, for instance the use of an adjustable packing table with the ideal height for the handler.
Organisational measures
The practice of designing suitable workflow and work processes, for instance avoiding monotonous motion sequences and adding varying movements to daily work.
Individual measures
Well-balanced and health conscious behaviour at the office workplace, measures for prevention and training, such as fitness programmes for employees or training concerning the use of technical solutions, back training or nutrition counselling.
