Membetulkan salah tanggapan terhadap ergonomik

Apabila mendengar perkataan ‘ergonomik’ atau faktor manusia (human factors), apakah yang terbayang di dalam fikiran? Kerusi pejabat? Papan kekunci? Meja IKEA?

Atau kerap kali kita mendengar bahawa pelaksaaan ergonomik di tempat kerja dan reka bentuk produk akan menelan belanja yang tinggi, justeru ia hanya mampu diaplikasi oleh industri atau pemilik perniagaan yang bermodal besar.

Falsafah utama dalam ergonomik adalah meletakkan manusia (atau pengguna) di tempat tertinggi dalam senarai keutamaan. Pengguna adalah komponen utama dalam proses reka bentuk, di samping aspek fungsi sesuatu produk, sistem, tempat kerja, atau pembentuk organisasi. Ciri-ciri pengguna seperti ukuran tubuh (antropometri), kebolehan dan keterbatasan fizikal, kemampuan pancaindera, keupayaan berfikir dan membuat keputusan, adalah antara aspek-aspek yang menentukan keberkesanan sesuatu produk apabila berada di tangan manusia.
