Abstract

Home furnishings are not normally considered as a critical concern for product safety, but the large number of exposure hours and the vunerability of of exposed populations tend to increase the relative importance of their safe and functional design. This paper explores the scope of this problem and provides a discussion of ergonomic design factors to be considered as means of reducing the hazards associated with home furnishings.
