Ergonomics is the study of the movements involved in work. How you move your body, arms, legs, hands and feet while you are working.
Before the advent of PCs, "ergonomics" was mainly a matter of posture when working on machines in the factory or assembly line, or lifting heavy objects on the farm.
This has become a bigger problem in the last 20 years or so, as more and more people spend their entire workday sitting in a chair and working on a computer. If you do not have good posture and proper alignment of the parts of your body with your chair, desk, PC, monitor and keyboard, you can cause yourself a real injury with lots of pain and suffering.
