Among the leading causes of workplace injuries are musculature disorders, which affect the muscles, tendons and nerves. According to OSHA, injuries can happen from working repetitively in uncomfortable or awkward positions.

With the right furnishings, those injuries are less likely to happen and workers will have more a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

Principles of Ergonomics
The foundation of the body is the spine, and the natural shape of the spine is a slight S curve. Whether sitting or standing, maintaining the natural shape of the spine helps reduce stress.

Office environments have many opportunities for workers to strain the spine into an unnatural shape. Hunching at a computer desk all day can force the spine into a C, and can strain the neck muscles, as well. The arms and wrists are also at risk. With ergonomic office furniture, the spine, neck muscles, and the arms and wrists maintain a more natural position, reducing stress and work fatigue.
