Looking at all these factors combined allows ergonomists to design workstations that maximize the working potential of employees.

 

Ergonomic desks

More and more jobs require workers to spend all day sitting at a desk. For a more comfortable working day, an appropriate desk is an essential place to start.

 

Desk height

How do you find the appropriate desk height for you? The basic premise is that your desk should be at a comfortable height that allows you, and encourages you, to have a good posture. Your elbows should be at a ninety-degree angle with your body when using your keyboard and mouse, your feet should be flat on the floor, and your knees should be in line with or slightly lower than your hips. 

 

Adjustable desks

Height adjustable workstations allow the user to adjust the surface to a suitable height, permitting you to try out several heights and work out the most comfortable position. Height-adjustment is also perfect for hot-desking working environments – each user can adjust it to a height that suits them.
