BIFMA G1-2002
2001 Ergonomics Guideline
standard by Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers Association, 2002
Full Description
Ergonomics Guideline for VDT (Visual Display Terminal) Furniture Used in Office Work Spaces. BIFMA has developed a guideline for furniture, intended for computer use in the USA and Canada, 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"). BIFMA has not attempted to develop an ergonomic standard of its own. Instead it has chosen to provide a guideline that applies ISO principles. We have attempted to include every measurable principle and design requirement in ISO 9241 parts 3 and 5 that affects furniture.
