We had an ergonomics coordinator at one office where I worked. The funny thing was that nothing ever came of it for too many of us with far from ergonomically designed desks and workspaces. Even now, working in an agency that is all about healthcare, I don't have a secretarial desk for a computer desk; hard on the arms and wrists. Go figure! One would think that a company would be conscious of lower healthcare costs for people who had proper working conditions, and probably fewer sick days for doctor's appointments and physical therapy.
