As time passes by, more and more offices give flexible working styles a chance. These can include different working hours, hiring freelancers or it could mean office redesign and the introduction of new modular workstation furniture pieces. Modern, sleek and adaptable pieces that will bring flexibility, looks and comfort, and all that together with increased staff productivity.
Office Space
When it comes to providing the best working conditions for your staff, it entails providing a space that has windows or other access to natural light, fresh air and ventilation. Continuous lack of fresh air in the workspace can lead to tiredness and inability to focus. Besides ideal light and air conditions, what is additionally needed in an office is the right temperature. Too hot and your employees can't function properly, let alone work. And too cold will make the body tense and their muscles stiff.
Desk
If your staff spend their workday behind a desk, then you need to make sure that they have the right one for them. One way to make this space functional for your employees is to additionally provide them with storage space on or under the desk itself. In this way, your staff will avoid wading through piles of paper in order to find the one thing they need. Storage space means decluttered and neatly organized desk space. Besides making the workspace look great, and encouraging staff productivity, your office will also look more professional for both staff and visitors alike.
One new trend that is widely on the rise is the standing desk. A modular workstation furniture piece that promotes good circulation, it keeps your mind more alert and it also burns calories with minimal effort. By having standing sessions while at work you can avoid cardiovascular problems, obesity and stiffness – all these can be caused by sitting down for more than 6 hours every day.
Chair
Having in mind the number of hours each office worker spends on a chair, it is only natural that it should provide all possible comfort and support that a person needs. So, another modular workstation furniture piece that each office needs is an ergonomic chair. A high-quality chair will ensure that your workers have a proper pelvis and lumbar support and that their back is anatomically accommodated for their 8-hour shift. If the measurements are correct, and the design is made to fit each person, an ergonomic chair will improve your staff members' posture and breathing and will also help with lessening the feeling of fatigue.
