So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

The Numerous Benefits Of Ergonomic Office Furniture

By Jimmy Calvin

Office furniture is an essential part of the office interior and it should suitably fit into the office design scheme. The office furniture should also conform to the principles of ergonomics so as to make sure that workers can go on using them for extended durations without any health risks.

Over one third of an average employee's day is spent in the office, and if the office furniture results in his discomfort and body pain, then it may create serious threat to his health. Thus it is crucial for employers to make sure that office furniture, particularly office chairs, are designed to enhance employees' comfort.

There are some important things to look for when buying office chairs. Stability, easy mobility and flexibility are the three aspects that should decide your choice of office chairs. Employees must be able to comfortably place their hands on the arm rests and be able to adjust the seat height according to their convenience. The chair must allow easy mobility of hands and legs such that the worker can execute his jobs without any hurdles. The back support is the most important component of an office chair. It must be sufficiently curved and cushioned to provide the back and spine maximum support and rest when seated.

The second most important component of office furniture is office desks. Their height should be just correct and they must have ample space to enable the person to do both computer as well as paperwork. Small or cluttered office desks are a real agony for the worker and his body also has to make certain avoidable adjustments during work that expose him to grave health risks at a later stage.

Office ergonomics is incomplete without careful consideration of the exact placements of office furniture. Workstations must have sufficient space in between so that employees can move or carry objects easily without disturbing a worker sitting at his workstation.

Good office ergonomics make sure not only a healthy workforce but a happier and more efficient one as well. An ergonomic workstation allows a worker to better organise and manage his work and also creates a pleasant and stress free environment.

Office design must always be such that the physical discomfort is ideally absent or at least minimised for the workers. The office interior must strive to develop such working conditions in which staff can carry out their jobs in a very productive manner without any health issues, so that the business gets the advantages of a healthy and efficient workforce.
