What does Participatory Ergonomics focus on?

  1. Employee engagement in designing workstations

  2. Mandatory overtime work

  3. Restricting telecommuting options

  4. Decreasing job autonomy

The correct answer is: Employee engagement in designing workstations

Participatory Ergonomics is a strategy that involves employees in the process of designing and creating their own workstations to reduce work-related injuries and improve overall productivity. Option B, mandatory overtime work, and Option C, restricting telecommuting options, are not related to ergonomics and would not be the focus of Participatory Ergonomics. Option D, decreasing job autonomy, is also not related to the focus of Participatory Ergonomics, which is to increase employee engagement and involvement in the design of their workstations.
