5 basic steps on how to set up your ergonomic chair

by Ergonomicsdirect on Oct 19, 2020
5 basic steps on how to set up your ergonomic chair

A good chair lets you customise the height, seat depth, armrests, and recline to your body so you’re comfortable no matter what your task is. However, it isn’t always obvious how to adjust these options for comfort and correct ergonomics. A good ergonomic chair should be one of the cornerstones of your workstation. Once you’ve selected your chair, it’s important to learn how to properly adjust it to best fit your body.

A good chair lets you customise the height, seat depth, armrests, and recline to your body so you’re comfortable no matter what your task is. However, it isn’t always obvious how to adjust these options for comfort and correct ergonomics. A good ergonomic chair should be one of the cornerstones of your workstation. Once you’ve selected your chair, it’s important to learn how to properly adjust it to best fit your body. 

Your first step should be following the instruction manual for your chair or looking for an adjustment diagram online. Once you have that, follow the 5 steps in our video to find the maximum health benefits from your office chair.

Also, remember to incorporate movement breaks into our day and to not sit for more than 20-30 minutes at a time.

Happy seating!

Yours in ergonomics,

The Ergonomicsdirect Team
