The layout of a workspace must be adapted to the users and the constraints associated with the activities carried out. Work in a seated position at the office is generally considered to be less demanding in terms of muscular effort. However, adopting such a posture for long periods of time can lead to back pain and muscle pain. Joint stiffness in the neck, numbness, as well as localized and constant tension (in certain areas of the body) are also observed in many office workers. To prevent (or even remedy) these evils, it is recommended to ensure a good design of the workplace. Acquiring office supplies, furniture and accessories that are functional and suitable for their well-being and good performance is therefore necessary.
