Here’s how to prevent sick leave or even permanent disability
It caught your attention, right? And rightly so, because sitting is the new smoking. We’ve heard this slogan for a while now, but what does it actually mean? Well, if you sit in the same position the whole working day, it increases the risk of chronic health problems such as heart disease, diabetes and even cancer. Not only physically but also mentally, prolonged sitting is a bummer. But what if you have an office job? Below we list five ergonomic solutions for a healthier posture during the workday.
Twist and turn
This wobble stool lets you wobble and turn. It not only rotates on its axis, but also rocks back and forth. This allows you move around. The stool is adjustable in height by pulling the leather loop under the seat. So do you want to use it as a standing aid or wobble stool? It’s all possible.
Adjustable height
Spending the entire day sitting at your desk is a thing of the past. The desks below are height-adjustable. This makes the possibilities endless; you can work sitting down, confer standing up or even lean in between on a standing aid. The desks are easily adjustable to your ideal height by means of a control panel. The ability to move and vary is the secret to a healthy workplace. This flexibility is not only better for your physical health, but also increases productivity.
