An ergonomic table can be set up at the right height for the individual and chair used. An ergonomic table and a sewing machine in the sewing section of a garment industry will provide comfort easier and faster working environment to the workers, which will finally result in higher industrial production and optimum efficiency. Ergonomic furniture not only increases comfort but also increases productivity and decreases stress.
