Recent statistics from a survey of people who work in an office environment have shown that the average office worker spends an average of 5 hour and 41 minutes every day at their desk – almost as long as many people spend in bed!

These statistics do raise a rather startling point  when it comes to suitability and even the safety of peoples office desks and their overall working environment and position. When taken into account that the average (people who lunch at their desks, don’t tend to leave it will be there for much longer) office worker spends almost as long at their office desk than they do in bed on a week night, the issue of furniture cleanliness and quality has to be brought into the equation.

Let’s face it, you wouldn’t put up with your bed being uncomfortable, broken, or filthy would you? Yet thousands of people all over seem to choose to simply put up with the same situation at the second most visited item of furniture, the office desk, which could be having massive detrimental effects on your health and productivity.

Many people sit at office desks which are cluttered, uncomfortable, germ ridden and ultimately unfit for purpose every day, and believe it or not, but only can this effect your mood, lowering morale, but you’re risking mental illness from the discomfort, disease from the germs built up on an unclean desk, and even physical conditions from being forced to sit an awkward angles, or ‘hunch’ your back due to disproportionate heights between your body and the desk.

If any of this is relatable to you, or anyone that you know, its time to speak up for the good of your health – plus, who doesn’t like a nice new stylish work space? – and push on to ensure that your office chairs, office desks, and the office as a whole are a safe, suitable place for anyone to work in.
