The influence of the working environment on the quality of posture - applied ergonomics and physiotherapy in the office environment
 CHADIM, Petr
This bachelor's thesis explores the impact of the work environment on body posture quality within the context of office settings. The objective of this study is to analyze how factors of the work environment, such as furniture ergonomics, workstation arrangement, and work tools, affect employees' body posture, and how these factors can be optimized to prevent musculoskeletal disorders and enhance overall comfort. The study focuses on two primary areas of intervention: applied ergonomics and physiotherapy. Concerning applied ergonomics, the thesis investigates principles and practices for designing work environments that promote healthy body posture and mitigate the risks of adverse effects caused by prolonged sitting. Additionally, it evaluates the ergonomic aspects of technical equipment and employees ergonomic habits. Physiotherapy constitutes the second pillar of this work. The research examines how a physiotherapeutic approach can assist employees in improving body posture quality, enhancing muscle stability, and preventing potential musculoskeletal disorders. This section of the thesis presents specific physiotherapeutic exercise procedures and techniques suitable for office environments. The practical part of the work was conducted in the form of a qualitative research on a sample of three subjects. I conducted an analysis of existing ergonomic and physiotherapeutic approaches and case studies investigating the specific implementation of these approaches in a selected company. The results indicate that proper ergonomics of the working environment and regular physiotherapy can effectively contribute to maintaining healthy body posture of employees and thus their overall comfort and productivity.
