Sit-to-stand workstation improves employee health

In fact, the consequences of not moving enough have often been linked to the non-reversible effects of smoking, hence the mantra ‘sitting is the new smoking’. Not only are the economic and human costs of MSDs unnecessary, but musculoskeletal disorders are also preventable.

StarTech.com, who is well aware of these health concerns, has come up with several simple solutions, including sit-to-stand desks. These allow employees to move effortlessly between sitting and standing throughout their work day, bringing them many health benefits, from increased circulation to reduced fatigue. These workstations also provide a cost-effective solution for enhancing ergonomics by utilising existing desks and work spaces. Its applications are versatile and can be used in business settings, corporate and institutional environments, or the home office.
