Applying ergonomic principles to workstation layout ensures that users are physically supported for health and wellness while working. We were very interested to read the following simple tips from Haworth on how to create comfortable spaces that allow people to work safely and effectively while feeling healthier.
- Design workstations to support a variety of postures and proximity to the work surface.
- Encourage users to sit or stand centred at their task or with their computer monitor close to the work surface.
- Support healthy postures with strategic placement of work surface items.
- Increase movement, steps, and posture changes throughout the workday.
