SUPPORT FOR RELAXED WORK IN THE HOME OFFICE

New situations require new solutions. Now, if you have to work in a home office because of Corona protections and you’re not equipped to do so, a few adaptations in the home may be helpful. Checking your emails on the couch seems comfortable at first, but after a few hours at the latest, you’ll feel that working in this position isn’t ideal in the long run.

Ergo accessories: Small helpers with a big effect

There are a variety of products that can make working much more pleasant for you. These include small aids such as mouse and keyboard pads with palm rests, footrests and other ergonomic accessories. Especially if you work at a regular table, such as the kitchen table, a reading and writing desk could help you organize your work and relax your neck at the same time. Height-adjustable sit-stand desks are also particularly practical, so that you can also work standing up in between. If you do more standing than sitting, it’s a good idea to use anti-fatigue mats to relax your feet and encourage regular movement. As a general rule, make sure to stand up more often in between.

Healthy seating for flexible work at home

But perhaps you are already thinking about buying a piece of seating furniture. However, you may not have a dedicated space for your transitional office and thus not enough room for a large swivel chair. In this case, a motion stool or a maneuverable task swivel chair might be right for you. These flexible alternatives not only support an active posture and strengthen the back, but are also practical for the rest of the household and can be used by several family members.
