ERGONOMIC GUIDELINES G1-2002 BIFMA's Ergonomics Subcommittee has developed a guideline for office furniture intended for "extensive computer use" by applying the measurable principles and design requirements of ISO 9241 parts 3 ("Visual display requirements") and 5 ("Ergonomic requirements for office work with visual display units").

The ISO standard 9241-3,-5 may be downloaded at the Electronics Standards Store at: http://webstore.ansi.org/ansidocstore/default.asp BIFMA wishes to thank all those individuals and member companies who supplied the expertise in developing the ERGONOMIC GUIDELINES G1-2002. At the present time, there are no immediate plans to revise the Guideline.
