Do you consistently feel stressed and irritable or do you have trouble concentrating on the task at hand ?There could be too much ambient noise from traffic or elsewhere within the office.

Do you suffer from severe eyestrain or allergies that only seem to act up when you’re at work?You should investigate the purchase of a new computer screen.

Do you feel sleepy all the time, but especially when you’re at work?

This could be because your office is set at the wrong temperature, so adjust the thermostat to make it slightly cooler.

Do you suffer from persistent neck pain?

This is likely a result of the type of telephone you are using or the way it has been placed at your desk; try changing this.

Keep in mind that an ergonomic chair and an ergonomic workstation have to work together in order to receive the best results.
