YOU SPEND 90% OF YOUR WORKING DAY IN CONTACT WITH IT – SO MAKE SURE IT’S GOOD STUFF!
There are lots of factors involved in creating a pleasant working environment: a good location helps, as does appropriate lighting, a clean air supply. But one of the most important factors is of course office furniture! Think about the amount of time you spend sitting on office chairs, or working at your office desk and you'll see that choosing the right office furniture is crucial.
COMFORT: YOU CAN’T OVER-EMPHASISE ITS IMPORTANCE You could fill a large library with the amount of research that has been done on the effects of ergonomically-designed office furniture on workplace productivity. Take it from us, we’ve read a bunch of it (and somehow we managed to stay awake). The results are unequivocal: ergonomically designed office furniture makes a hugely positive impact on workplace productivity.
FEATURES: ANOTHER IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION Comfort is not the only important consideration that you need to bear in mind – sometimes you need furniture with some features. Perhaps you need office chairs that swivel or recline; maybe you need an office desk with at least 3 drawers; or maybe you’re in the hunt for a luxurious recliner to sink into after a long hard day. All factors play a part in deciding an item you will be looking at for the next 10 years possibly.
STYLE Aside from the more practical considerations of comfort and features, your office furniture should also say something about your organisation. Are you happy letting your employees sit back on creaking old office chairs, or do you want to be an organisation that makes a confident statement of professionalism via an office filled with modern practical office furniture solutions.
