The perfect office environment starts with a desk and chair
Employees spend most of their day in the office. Although the rooms that many employees share with one or more colleagues are first and foremost places of work, the furnishings should also take into account the well-being of the employees. Experts know that office furnishings have a decisive influence on employees' willingness to perform and their health.
The Desk
Many options for desks
The ideal desks will support the employees to work comfortably, safely, and in an ergonomic way, whether in the office or at home. Office desks tend to be more pragmatic than aesthetic, but there should still be a certain level of design to ensure that the desk fits well into the office environment. There are so many options of different desks out there, however, the demand for well-being should not suffer because of a low price. In the best case, a good office desk harmonises with an ergonomic office chair. But also factors like support of the reseller, warranties, and assembly time should be taken into account.

The Desk Chair
Prolonged sitting
Static prolonged sitting is generally considered to be a strain on the mind and body (Biswas et al., 2015, Kaillings et al. 2021). Muscles and joints are repeatedly and continuously used in the same way over a long period of time (Feveile et al., 2002), resulting in stiff muscles and hardening joints.
Having the right chair to ensure your well-being is very important. An ergonomic office chair could be one of the very few things that can prevent back pain when working at a desk.
Active sitting
Exercise and sport have a positive effect on the state of mind. Not only do they reduce psychological stress, but there is also evidence that cognitive performance can be improved through exercise (Mualem et al., 2018). Therefore, exercise should also be possible while sitting. It is about so-called 'active sitting' or 'dynamic sitting'. Here, the sitting position is changed frequently. Sitting thus becomes an active activity and is no longer passive and static. The office chair should therefore have a stimulating effect on active sitting and enable or even provoke changes in the working posture.

Guide: How to sit active and healthy
- Choose a chair with a dynamic function (tilt mechanisms: forward and backward or 3D in every direction), this automatically leads to sitting actively and changing position often
- “The best posture, is the next posture”, which means, movement is more important than static ‘posture’.
- A higher (open) sitting position, with an angle of more than 90° between torso and thighs will help you to sit straight, move body weight to your thighs and activate the muscles of your legs
- If you want to sit well-supported (often less active) for a certain period, take care that you sit on the very back of your seat and make use of the backrest. Take care that the backrest and lumber support are adjusted in a way that your back is well supported, as this helps you to keep a more neutral position.
