Why office ergonomics matter
Office work often challenges employees' health and activity levels. Prolonged sitting (on average 66% of the workday, according to TTL 2023) or static standing positions can lead to a variety of health issues. Over the past decade, the health concerns associated with sedentary work have significantly increased. Addressing these issues proactively by designing ergonomic and active workspaces is both economically and ethically advantageous.
Sitting Ergonomics
Poor sitting habits are among the most harmful aspects of office work. Extended sitting negatively impacts muscles, joints, and overall health, increasing the risk of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. Equip your workspace with:
Ergonomic Chairs: Fully adjustable chairs that support a healthy posture.
Active Seating: Saddle or dynamic chairs to encourage movement and reduce static postures.
Fact: Employees spend on average 66% of their workday sitting (TTL 2023).
Standing Workstations
Alternating between sitting and standing is essential for maintaining energy and focus throughout the day. Products in this category include:
Height-Adjustable Desks: Easily transition between sitting and standing with our electric desks.
Standing Mats and Balance Boards: Supportive accessories to enhance comfort and activity.
Recommendation: Stand at least 2 hours per day to improve stamina and overall health (THL 2023).
Active Workstations
Bring movement into your workspace with products that promote physical activity:
Dynamic Office Furniture: Balance boards, desk cycles, and treadmill desks.
Active Seating: Chairs designed to keep your body engaged.
Benefits: Active work solutions reduce musculoskeletal pain, improve focus, and lower the risk of chronic diseases.
Screen Work Ergonomics
Most office work involves extensive time at screens. Ensure optimal ergonomics with:
Specialized Mice and Keyboards: Vertical or central mice, ergonomic keyboards, and wrist supports.
Adjustable Monitor Stands: Position screens at eye level to prevent neck and shoulder strain.
