Humans just aren’t meant to sit hunched over at an office desk all day, whether you’re staring at spreadsheets or talking on the phone. Physically, it’s uncomfortable. Mentally, it’s draining. So when it comes to work performance, stationary office desks are just plain inefficient. The solution? Give your employees the opportunity to move around and get comfortable while they work. Incorporate adjustable height desks, also known as sit-or-stand desks into the office. In addition to promoting more movement throughout the day, these revolutionary office desks help create a more flexible atmosphere in your office and can even boost productivity.

Additionally, many studies reveal traditional office chairs and desks to report in blood pooling in the thighs and quadriceps. This can lead to poor circulation and sore muscles. By giving employees the option of standing up or even slightly adjusting the height of their workstations, you’ll improve work performance. You can increase overall alertness and help eliminate common health issues that plague other offices. In order to get the most out of your adjustable height desks, encourage employees to alternate between sitting and standing every couple of hours. Remember, not everyone will use them in the same way. Some people are unable to stand for long periods of time, while others will work best on their feet. Optimize your work performance by choosing a desk with a wide variety of height options. Employees will benefit from the flexibility. The most important thing is to provide options and flexibility. It’s easy to break the monotony of a typical office environment.
