Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the validity of a self-administered checklist for office ergonomics. Total 71 office workers were asked to fill up the checklist, while 3 trained ergonomists assessed the work posture of the workers. It was shown that out of 10 checklist items, there were significant differences for 8 posture-related items between the worker group and the professional group. Therefore, when a checklist is applied to office environment, the posture-related aspect should be evaluated by ergonomic professionals.
