Ergonomic mistakes you make at home – and how a height-adjustable desk can help
Share
Working from home has become the new normal for many – but did you know that your work environment at home can affect both your health and productivity more than you think? Many people make common ergonomic mistakes without even thinking about it. In this post, we’ll go over what you should avoid, and how a height-adjustable desk like the Freedesk Desk Riser can make all the difference.
Common ergonomic mistakes in the home office
1. You work from the couch or bed
It may feel cozy, but it's an ergonomic nightmare . Poor back posture, a curved neck, and lack of support quickly lead to pain and stiffness.
2. The screen is too low
Looking down at your screen all day puts strain on your neck and shoulders. Eye level is key to a healthy work posture.
3. You sit still for too long
Sitting for several hours at a time is not only uncomfortable – it increases the risk of back problems, poor circulation and fatigue.
4. Wrong height of table and chair
If your wrists are angled up or down, or if you have to hunch forward – then it's time to think again.
