What is the most important feature of an ergonomic space?
The answer to this question depends mainly on the type of office or workspace you have. However, in our experience, the office chair tends to be the most critical piece of equipment in an ergonomic office. The desk chair is where you will spend most of their time and can be the root cause of many of their ailments or work-related injuries. So, investing in the right chair is at the top of any ergonomic project.
