چکیده

An office ergonomics intervention incorporating a macroergonomics design approach was conducted to investigate the effects of a flexible workspace design and ergonomics training on musculoskeletal health, psychosocial environment and performance in a computer-based office setting. This longitudinal, field intervention study included three data collection periods (one preand two post-interventions). Knowledge workers were assigned to: flexible workspace (n=121), flexible workspace + ergonomics training (n=31), or control (n=45). The study findings indicated positive, significant effects on the outcome variables for the two intervention groups compared to the control group, including reduced musculoskeletal risk, symptoms and improved psychosocial environment and performance.
