“Ergonomics is the study of the relationship between people and their working environment”. It is a scientific discipline, which is concerned with improving productivity, health, safety and comfort in the office as well as promoting effective interaction between staff, the technology they are using, and the environment in which they must operate.”
Ergonomic office furniture is designed to facilitate working, and minimize fatigue and the possibility of injury. The aim is to match the equipment to the body size, strength and range of motions of the user. Adjustable components allow the user to modify both work surface and chair to accommodate different physical dimensions and the requirements of the job.
The right choice of ergonomically designed office furniture can improve comfort, reduce instances of pain and injury, increase productivity and generally improve morale.
