ANALYSIS OF THE ERGONOMICS OF THE COMPUTER COMPONENTS AND SUGGESTION CONCERNING ERGONOMIC REQUIREMENTS IN THE WORK ENVIRONMENT
Long term work on the computer is associated with severe risk factors for emergence and development of different pathological conditions and diseases, which can vary from relatively harmless to highly dangerous. They emerge as a consequence of long static load of the spinal column, non-physiological body position and repeated motions of wrist. The elements of computer ergonomics with the results of the conducted research which includes work with the keyboard and mouse are described in this paper. Work with the computer as the main means of work in administration influences numerous health problems. Ergonomiccally adjusted workplace as well as ergonomic work environment reduce the risk. In order to obtain more efficient evaluation if the workplace of the computer useris ergonomiccally adjusted, the Check list with the corrective measures neccessary to reduce riskof ergonomic problems is suggested in this paper.
