When fitting-out workspaces, the office chair is an often overlooked investment. With the average office worker spending the equivalent of five years sat at their desk without getting up, it’s no surprise that poor furniture choices contribute to absenteeism and reduced productivity.
According to HSE Gov, 8.9 million working days were lost due to work-related musculoskeletal disorders in 2016-2017. 507,000 workers suffered a work-related musculoskeletal disorder and 83% of those were back and neck related. It’s clearly in the best interests of everyone concerned that these work-related conditions are avoided. One solution is to ensure that office workers have a task chair that can be tailored to their proportions, and that they’re trained to sit correctly - minimising potential musculoskeletal problems.
