Description
The design and configuration of a workplace refers to the process of making a physical work space equipped and ready for the work that is required to be undertaken. Because the work will be performed by human workers using machines, the workplace should be configured for the comfort and safety of humans. Human limitations and the capabilities of the human body should be kept in mind when selecting equipment that will be used for work and when installing or placing the equipment. Hence, the workplace as well as the work equipment should be ergonomically designed and the designer should consider human factors when making any decisions related to the configuration of the work place. This report discusses relevant themes related to the design and configuration of the workplace for optimal human performance.
