Happiness in the workplace : the effects of ergonomics on office syndrome
Abstract:
This research aims to study the correlation between Ergonomics and Office Syndrome in the workplace. In Thailand, there has been a growing trend in young adults with up to 80% of the Bangkok city population said to be suffering from Office Syndrome. Ergonomic is about adapting the workplace to the workers capabilities. Having the proper equipment increases productivity and employee engagement, leading to the reduction of direct and indirect costs thus improving the quality and safety standard of the company. This research will consists of observations, interviews and an experimenting phase. The results show that whilst there is a definite correlation between Ergonomics and Office Syndrome, it is not the only cause. Other factors contribute to the Office Syndrome symptoms such as our lifestyle and habit choices
