View through CrossRef
Ergonomics is essential for promoting employee health, comfort, and productivity, yet its implementation in Pakistan's corporate sector remains limited. This qualitative study investigates corporate employees' perceptions and lived experiences regarding ergonomics and ergonomically designed workstations. Data collected through semi-structured interviews and focus groups with 20 employees from various organizations in Karachi, Pakistan were analyzed thematically. Findings reveal limited ergonomic awareness, organizational and cultural barriers, and employee-led workstation adaptations. The study underscores the need for increased ergonomic education, participatory approaches, and organizational commitment to foster healthier work environments. These insights inform policymakers and corporate leaders aiming to improve occupational health in Pakistan.
