      abstract = {An office is a place where a company's personnel carry out administrative tasks to support and achieve the company's objectives. An office is a structure, a section of a structure, or a space used for desk-based commercial activities. The workplace is a functioning ecology that depends solely on people. The study of ergonomics focuses on the interaction between individuals and their workplaces. Productivity is frequently defined as the quantity of output divided by the volume of inputs. The purpose of this research is to assess the impact of ergonomics in office buildings with a view to suggestive measures of enhancing productivity in the work environment towards enhancing productivity in office buildings. The literature review discusses ergonomics, its history and how it impacts productivity. The sources of information for this research includes case study, questionnaires, personnel observation and journals. 65 questionnaires were shared, 65 questionnaires were returned and the result showed the impact of ergonomics on productivity and that most users were satisfied with the spatial configuration of their space. The study recommends that employees have control over the physical aspect their workspace such as lighting, noise, temperature and that organizations conduct training sessions for new hires on ergonomic issues.},
