What Are Ergonomic Office Chairs & Are They Worth It?

Did you know an average office worker sits between 4 and 10 hours per day? That equates to around 67 days per year spent in a chair. Even if you or your employees are on the lower end of the sitting time spectrum, the chairs you choose to fit your office with will have a major impact. It’s your choice whether it’s positive or negative.

As you may have guessed, not all chairs are built equal. And some chairs are better than others for certain tasks. But for those working at a desk, ergonomic chairs are the best choice. Keep reading to learn why.

What makes a chair ergonomic?

The word ergonomic is used to define items used in the workplace that help increase efficiency whilst providing maximum comfort. And our Ergonomic Seating Range, with its fully customisable dimensions, will ensure every employee feels comfortable and able to do their best work.

Unique and adjustable, just like their occupants

Ergonomic chairs are designed to be adjusted to fit each individual’s unique dimensions. That means seat height and depth are all under the user’s control. Some chairs also offer adjustable armrests. These customisable adjustments ensure the user’s comfort and support throughout the day.

Lumbar support

Ergonomic chairs are fitted with lumbar support. This ensures the occupant’s spine and lower back are braced to maintain a healthy posture. The longer a person sits without lumbar support, the more likely they are to slouch, which can lead to myriad health problems if not addressed.

An option for every body

We have a range of ergonomic chairs available in Lismore, with several customisable options to ensure everybody in your office is comfortable.

Styles to complement

Just like each employee is unique, we know that every office space is unique. That’s why Office Warehouse offers a range of styles and colours to improve the aesthetic of any office workspace.

Increase productivity

It should come as little surprise that comfortable and healthy employees are capable of being more productive. With less time spent stretching sore muscles, or even taking time off for work-related injuries, your company has a better chance of thriving in today’s market.
