Applications:
Ergonomics continues to be successfully applied in the fields of workplace design, occupational health, safety, product design, aerospace engineering, mechanical engineering, health care, IT sectors, transportation, training, nuclear power plant, virtual environments, industrial design and so on.

Benefits:
Application of ergonomic principles in various fields provides better man-machine interaction, healthy and comfortable working environments, and enhancement of human performance and efficiency and thus ultimately leads to an overall improvement of system’s (man-machine-environment) productivity with reduction of error and accidents.

Key benefits of application of ergonomics are listed below:

• Human fatigue and error can be reduced.
• Increase productivity and safety.
• Increase work quality.
• Decrease risk of accidents.
• Improve people's attitudes.
• More user satisfaction.
• Less absenteeism.
• Reduced lost time, etc.
