Ergonomic keyboards help reduce strain on the hands and wrists by placing the hands in a more natural position. They help reduce risks of Carpal Tunnel which can occur with prolonged use when the wrist is not alligned. Various keyboards also have various hot-keys (programmable or not) that can act as shortcuts for regularly used programs.
