For employees who sit for long periods of time, how do fixed armrests ensure that their comfort and health needs are met?
For employees who sit for long periods of time, fixed armrests can ensure their comfort and health needs through the following points:
Reasonable armrest height setting:
The height setting of fixed armrests should take into account the natural position of employees' elbows to waist when sitting. According to relevant specifications, the armrest height is generally recommended to be between 900mm-1100mm to ensure that employees can place their arms naturally when resting or needing support, avoid excessive bending or stretching, and reduce fatigue and discomfort caused by long-term work.
Material and touch selection:
The material of the armrest should be comfortable and soft, such as soft leather or memory foam, to increase the comfort of the hand.
The surface of the armrest should have good anti-slip properties to prevent employees' hands from sliding during long-term work, causing discomfort or injury.
Consider the angle and width of the armrest:
The angle design of the armrest should take into account the natural placement angle of the employee's arm to avoid the armrest being too vertical or tilted, causing the arm to be in an unnatural state for a long time.
The width of the armrest should be determined based on the average arm width of employees to ensure that most employees can get comfortable support when using it.
Provide appropriate adjustment functions:
Although the height and angle of the fixed armrest are fixed, you can consider providing adjustment functions in other parts of the office chair, such as the backrest angle, seat cushion height, etc., to further meet the personalized needs of employees and improve comfort.
Combined with ergonomic design:
When designing fixed armrests, ergonomic principles should be fully considered to ensure that the armrests can provide stable support for employees while reducing the pressure on the shoulders, necks and arms from long-term work.
Regular maintenance and inspection:
Clean and maintain the armrests regularly to ensure that their surfaces are clean and undamaged to keep them in good use.
Regularly check whether the connection between the armrest and the chair is firm to avoid loosening or falling off during use to ensure the safety of employees.
The key to meeting the comfort and health needs of employees who sit and work for a long time is to reasonably set the armrest height, choose comfortable materials and touch, consider the angle and width of the armrest, provide appropriate adjustment functions, combine ergonomic design, and regularly maintain and inspect. Through the implementation of these measures, the work efficiency and health level of employees can be effectively improved.
