Office Chair Ergonomics and You

Ergonomics is a complex science, but it’s really all about people. When your body is physically supported in the right way at work, it provides benefits for your overall well-being—positively impacting everything from physical health and well-being to work performance, engagement, and job satisfaction.

We spend over half our waking hours working—often sitting down. Using an ergonomic office chair has been proven to decrease the risk of injuries in the neck, shoulders, arms, back, and legs. Good ergonomic seating also promotes focus and productivity by minimizing distractions and stress from being uncomfortable.

With over three decades of sitting knowledge and ergonomics research, we understand how to support people at work. We use more than 5.5 billion pressure mapping data points gathered through a scientific partnership to design and engineer office chairs that deliver comfort and ergonomic support for as many people as possible.
