Making small changes in everything from the position of office furniture<\/a> to a daily work schedule can help employees become happier and healthier, it has been claimed.<\/p>\n

Writing in the Times, Robert Dobson described the various ways that office supplies<\/a> could be used to improve a worker’s wellbeing.<\/p>\n

One piece of advice centres on the use of office machines<\/a> and related peripherals. The article cites research from Norway which states that the correct positioning of a computer screen can reduce neck pain and sick leave.<\/p>\n

A properly positioned screen should sit so that the top of the screen is at eye level, it recommends.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Mr Dobson suggests that office layout and position of office furniture<\/a> can make a difference to staff health.<\/p>\n

For example, scientists at the Lund Institute of Technology in Sweden found that those who sat at office furniture<\/a> near windows experienced improved mood.<\/p>\n

"Nab a desk next to a window but away from the printer. A study published last month by the Queensland University of Technology found that printers<\/a> can cause a form of indoor air pollution," the article adds.<\/p>\n

Last month, the Bath Chronicle reported on a Stubbs Rich study which found that office furniture<\/a> and layout had an impact on employee morale.<\/p>\n

At Paperstone we can supply your firm with a wide selection of office furniture<\/a>.
