Seating in your workplace—Useful tips

In a nutshell, an office chair should allow the user to find the most comfortable position. The word allow is emphasised because so many chairs are simply not adjustable enough. When choosing a chair, look for:

♦Seat height adjustment, which permits a wide range of seat height settings

♦Seat tilt adjustment, where the seat can be angled forward, set level or tilted backwards.

♦Back height adjustment, easily altered by the user, preferably while sat in the chair.

♦Back angle adjustment, where the back’s ‘angle of attack’ can be altered to suit a task.

♦Arm height adjustment, to let the user select a height which supports their arm weight.

♦Arm width adjustment, offering support while the user’s arms are kept close to their sides.

♦Appropriate support for the lumbar (lower) and thoracic (upper) part of the back.

♦A seat cushion which prevents excess pressure under the thighs and behind the knees.

Chairs do not need all these features; however, most if not all, can be found on many models we’ve selected for this catalogue.

Good posture can be easily achieved in a chair and desk are well set up for the task in hand.

⇒When settling down to work, try to:

⇒Leave plenty of space for your legs under the desk.

⇒Make sure your chair armrests do not collide with the desk or prevent you sitting as near as you want to your workstation.

⇒Keep your forearms approximately horizontal. The right kind or armrests should help you achieve this.

⇒Try to avoid undue extension, flexion or awkward deviation of the wrists.

⇒Set your computer screen height to prevent awkward neck positions. Looking straight at a screen is much better than peering up, down or sideways at it for hours on end.

⇒Leave ample room in front of the keyboard, so arms and wrists can be well rested during pauses.

⇒Consider using a footrest, if you cannot rest you feet on the floor once the chair and desk heights are in set at correct and comfortable heights.
