Ergonomics

Internet Research -- Project Based Learning

You have been asked to research information related to Ergonomics and the office environment. Several of the office employees have missed work complaining of eye fatigue, backaches, and wrist pain, during the last six months. The Vice President is interested in making the office environment more ergonomically correct. He would like for you to report back to him tomorrow with the results of your research

Include in your presentation, whatever method you choose, the following areas of concern in the office:

· Workstation—Monitor and Document holder

· Workstation—Chair

· Workstation—Keyboard and Mouse

· Environment—Lighting

Access the Internet:

You will research the Ergonomics link at OSHA’s Web site. Once you have connected to the Ergonomics link, look for information to create a report or a table using MS Word or MS PPT to create a presentation.

Be sure that you cover the subject, but do not copy, plagiarism is as unlawful on the internet as anywhere else.
