In the workplace, whether you work from home, in a busy office, or even a little bit of both, you will no doubt want to be as comfortable and as productive as you can be. Believe it or not, but something as seemingly basic as choosing the wrong chair could actually seriously hinder your productivity and damage your health in the process.
In the workplace, every single day, people’s health is suffering due to a lack of movement, too much sitting, and sitting in the wrong position.
