ERGONOMICS IN THE WORKPLACE
Working from home is part of the new norm.
DURABLE o ers solutions for e icient and
ergonomic workstations to ensure your
employees are set up for home working
e iciently.
It takes more than just a laptop to create a home
o— ice, so establishing what your employees require
to be set up at home e— ectively is the first step
to implementing a good home working practice.
Facilities Managers are familiar with ensuring
employees are set up correctly with their required
products in the o— ice, now the challenge for Facility
Managers is to recognise what is also needed at
home.
Along with traditional o— ice equipment to ensure
proper posture and positioning, (such as an o— ice
chair and wrist supports) modern solutions can also
create an ergonomic workspace by implementing
the ‘clean-desk’ principle. Space may be limited for

your employees so keeping their
workspaces clear and organised
leads to fewer distractions and
increased concentration.
VARICOLOR® Drawer Boxes
and Monitor Mounts are useful
tools as well as space-saving,
and cable management products
such as CAVOLINE® are a must
for taming the cable spaghetti
we o© en find when working from
home.
We know that our working
environments have a huge e— ect
on us, so advising workers to set
up their workspace by a window
will provide natural light which
works in harmony with the body’s
circadian rhythm. And as the nights draw in, o— ering
human-centric lighting works
as a good alternative.
Facilities Managers
are needed to support
employees to make this
shi© to home working as
seamless as possible. Checking in from time to
time keeps employees feeling connected and more
confident to ask for support.
