How to Balance Work and Well-being

Details

With a shift in the modern workplace and the growth of technology, the increase in a more sedentary lifestyle has created movements. These are designed to promote employee health and wellbeing. Working styles are constantly evolving to allow for a healthy balance between sitting, standing, and walking. This includes the introduction of height-adjustable desks and tables, which are a perfect solution to encourage movement throughout the day.

Height-adjustable desks, like our Swish and Rize ranges, allow users to easily adjust their work surface from a sitting to a standing position. This gives the user complete control of how they work. In addition, our Rize range includes height-adjustable side tables and meeting tables. This allows employees to mix up the way they collaborate and conduct meetings, fostering a more dynamic work environment.

Three benefits of height adjustable desks include:

  • Improved Health - With the increased risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes from sitting all day, research has shown that switching to a sit-stand desk lowers blood sugar levels, lowers your risk of heart disease, improves metabolism and reduces back pain.

  • Improved Mood and Energy Levels - The popularity of sit-stand desks has had a positive impact on the employees overall well-being. By introducing desks like our Swish or Rize, users have shown to be less stressed and fatigued than those who remain seated all day.

  • Boosts Productivity - Being able to access a variety of postures throughout the day helps employees stay engaged with their work tasks. Standing has also been proven to stimulate circulation, sending more oxygen and nutrients to the brain, improving one's mental focus thus encouraging one to work more efficiently and increase performance.

We believe that investing in ergonomic solutions is an investment in your team's health and performance. Creating a flexible and active workspace is key to modern office design.
