How much of your work day is spent sitting at a desk, staring at a computer screen? We’re willing to bet that’s what you’re doing right now. If so, what does your posture look like?

Improper seating can lead to serious health issues, including Musculoskeletal Disorder (MSD) – a back problem that develops over time and can have a major impact on your well-being.

It also causes a number of short-term issues, and affects the way you work. Employee performance is impacted in a number of ways – and ergonomics is a key influencer on your quality of work.

This Office Canada newsletter shares some small improvements you can make to your office – from the way you are sitting to the lighting in the room – to improve workplace productivity.
