ARE YOU SITTING COMFORTABLY ?
Selecting the right office chair does not have to be complicated. The key points to remember when choosing office chairs are, how long are the chairs are being used for and what activity will the user be doing while using the chair.
Head rest
Comfort and support option for performance chairs
Lumbar support
Adjusts to support the lower back and spine
Seat height
Allow for your feet to be firmly on the floor when seated. The seat height should be just below the knee cap when standing
Back rest
Allow the spinal column to follow the natural ‘S’ shape
Arm rests
Provide support for the upper body and therefore reduce the stress on the users shoulders and back
Chair base
