What kind of office chair is ergonomic?
With the development of the modern office environment, people's working hours are getting longer and longer, and sitting on office chairs for a long time has become a common phenomenon. However, sitting for a long time will have a great impact on our physical health, which requires us to choose an ergonomic office chair to ensure our work efficiency and physical health.
So, is your office chair ergonomic? Here are some judging criteria:
1. Whether the height of the seat is adjustable: the height of the seat should be able to match the height of the work surface, so as to ensure that your knees, waist and elbows can all be at a 90° angle when working.
2. Whether the seat depth is appropriate: the seat depth should allow your back waist and buttocks to be close to the back of the seat, which can reduce the pressure on the waist and ensure your body comfort.
3. Whether the backrest conforms to the curve of the human body: the backrest should conform to the curve of the human body, thereby providing support for the spine and neck, reducing pressure, and preventing strain on the waist and neck.
4. Whether the height of the armrest is appropriate: the height of the armrest should be able to let your arm relax naturally, and the elbow is at a 90° angle.
5. Whether there is lumbar support: Some high-end ergonomic chairs will be equipped with lumbar support to ensure the support of the waist and avoid excessive pressure on the waist.
If your office chair meets the above criteria, it can be said to be an ergonomic chair. If not, then you should consider replacing it with an ergonomic chair. At present, the brands of ergonomic chairs on the market include Ivyco and so on.
Choosing an ergonomic office chair is of great help to our physical health and work efficiency. It can reduce the pressure on the waist and neck, provide body support, and make your body more comfortable, thereby improving work efficiency. Therefore, when choosing an office chair, we should give priority to choosing a chair that conforms to ergonomic principles.
