In the modern academic office, a significant disconnect exists between standardized workstation design and the diverse physical needs of employees, creating a hidden matrix of health risks. This study provides a comprehensive ergonomic audit of a university registrar's office to quantify these hazards. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 20 employees, integrating (1) anthropometric measurements against furniture dimensions, (2) environmental assessments of illumination and noise, and (3) clinical screenings for vision and hearing. The analysis revealed critical design failures. For instance, fixed-height seating created a postural mismatch for over 60% of staff, and inadequate seat depth prevented proper back support for 43% of female employees. Environmentally, lighting at key workstations fell to 218 lux, less than half the recommended 500 lux, posing a risk for significant visual strain. Most alarmingly, audiometric screening identified that 42% of employees exhibited mild to severe hearing loss. Our findings demonstrate that a "one-size-fits-all" approach to office design is not merely suboptimal but actively detrimental to employee health. This data-driven case study provides a clear mandate for the adoption of adjustable, user-centered workstations and environmental standards to mitigate occupational health risks.
