20 Best Ergonomic Office Chairs Under $500 for Your Office

<p dir="ltr">We all have days where we do not get anything done. You feel bored, lazy, and unmotivated, and just can&#39;t get yourself motivated to do anything. You decide to watch some cat videos for some inspiration. Before you know it, you find yourself having spent the whole morning binge-watching Youtube videos.</p>

<p dir="ltr">At lunchtime, you decide to get something to eat, and then you tell yourself you will get back to your task, and do the work this time around.</p>

<p dir="ltr">After lunch, you swing by your desk; you feel lethargic and decide to place your head on your desk for a few minutes. A few minutes turn into a siesta. All of a sudden, it&#39;s 5 pm, you look at what you have done, well you have done nothing!</p>

<p dir="ltr">Fear not: there is nothing wrong with you, but there are things that are making you unmotivated. Here are 7 reasons why you are not motivated, and how to overcome each one of them.</p>

<h2 dir="ltr">1.&nbsp;You have zero connection to your why&nbsp;</h2>

<p dir="ltr"><img loading="lazy" alt="image relates to zero connection" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20200730/You-have-zero-connection-to-your-why--99ac649d94.jpg" /></p>

<p dir="ltr">Can you answer the question, &quot;Why do you do what you do?&quot; Unfortunately, most people cannot answer this question conclusively. They do not know why they do what they do. However, they just find themselves doing things.</p>

<p dir="ltr">For example, if you are asked why your work, what would your answer be?&nbsp;</p>

<p dir="ltr">If you do not have a <a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/acquired-spontaneity/201312/why-do-we-do-what-we-do" >&quot;why&quot;</a>, chances of being motivated are minimal. However, if you do know why you work, you will be looking forward to doing your work.</p>

<h2 dir="ltr">2.&nbsp;You reward yourself for everything</h2>

<p dir="ltr"><img loading="lazy" alt="image relates to reward yourself" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20200730/You-reward-yourself-for-everythingdeb9d1fd39.jpg" /></p>

<p dir="ltr">Imagine you have finally gotten the motivation to do what you are supposed to do. So, you settle down at your desk and get started. However, you quickly realize it is too tough, and give yourself a break, and decide to check your social media.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Down the pike, you find yourself putting off your work and telling yourself you will come to it.&nbsp;</p>

<p dir="ltr">When you do come back to it, you feel the same dread and put it off again. And the cycle goes on and on.</p>

<p dir="ltr">The trouble is that <a href="https://psychcentral.com/blog/using-behavioral-psychology-to-break-bad-habits/" >your brain gets used to knowing there are no hard and fast consequences</a> for not finishing a task. In the long run, you find yourself unmotivated to put yourself to work and get anything done.</p>

<p dir="ltr">To cure yourself of this cycle, stop rewarding yourself for not doing anything. Be hard on yourself and say, for example, you will only check social media after you have completed your task. It will take some time to get used to, as you will be rewiring your reward system in your brain. However, this will quickly get you motivated to do stuff. So, in the end, you only reward your good behavior of getting things done, and not leaving them halfway done.</p>

<h2 dir="ltr">3.&nbsp;You do not know what you want</h2>

<p dir="ltr"><img loading="lazy" alt="image relates to what you want" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20200730/You-do-not-know-what-you-want9ee3c6edb5.jpg" /></p>

<p dir="ltr">Most people are indecisive about what they want. They do not have goals that they want to achieve and do not have the ambition to pursue a meaningful life.</p>

<p dir="ltr">So, if you do not know where you are headed, how are you supposed to be excited about it? It is like driving on an unknown road and hoping you will reach a dream destination. Nine out of ten, that destination will be a let-down.</p>

<p dir="ltr">So, do yourself a favor, have some goals. This will give you the motivation to get up and start pursuing things that matter in your life.</p>

<h2 dir="ltr">4.&nbsp;You are relying on willpower</h2>

<p dir="ltr">If you are sitting around and waiting around on your sheer will power to do things, guess what, you will keep on waiting, and nothing will get done.&nbsp;</p>

<p dir="ltr">Willpower is an ability to get things done when we want to get them done. However, since it is ability, you have to practice it for you to harness it.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Therefore, if you have not been exercising your willpower, and are relying on your willpower alone to get things done, you will not be very frustrated. You will soon realize willpower alone cannot get you motivated to work.</p>

<p dir="ltr">You will just have to get started on your work, whether you feel it or not. From there, motivation will find you along the way.</p>

<h2 dir="ltr">5.&nbsp;You are relying on extrinsic motivation</h2>

<p dir="ltr"><img loading="lazy" alt="image relates to extrinsic motivation" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20200730/You-are-relying-on-extrinsic-motivation-839efe8b29.jpg" /></p>

<p dir="ltr">When your boss congratulates you for a job well done, do you feel motivated to keep on working? However, when the praise words fade away, you do not feel motivated?</p>

<p dir="ltr">If you are this kind of person,<a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/creative-leadership/202004/extrinsic-vs-intrinsic-motivation-work#:~:text=Intrinsic%20motivation%2C%20on%20the%20other,the%20love%20of%20the%20work." > it is time to switch to intrinsic motivation</a>. This is the motivation that comes from inside you and stems from inner passions, beliefs, and values that you cultivate in you. If you build on them, they will motivate you for years and years to come.</p>

<p dir="ltr">So, switch from extrinsic motivations like praise, rewards, and stars to intrinsic motivation, which will keep you going no matter what.</p>

<h2 dir="ltr">6.&nbsp;You are stuck</h2>

<p dir="ltr">Are you hitting the same snug over, and over again? You feel like you are not making any progress. This can be causing you to lose your motivation.</p>

<p dir="ltr">If things are stuck, try and change your perspective. With newfound insight, you will be able to overcome the challenges and find your motivation coming back .</p>

<h2 dir="ltr">7.&nbsp;You stay in bed</h2>

<p dir="ltr">How long do you stay in bed?&nbsp; <a href="https://www.scienceabc.com/humans/why-is-it-a-bad-idea-to-stay-in-bed-for-too-long.html" >It has been shown that lying in bed for too long can ruin your mood, well being, and most of all, your motivation.&nbsp;</a></p>

<p dir="ltr">So, the next time you feel like hitting the snooze button, or lazing in bed, know you are hurting your motivation.</p>

<h2 dir="ltr">Conclusion</h2>

<p dir="ltr">Feeling bummed out when you have work to do can be very frustrating. And not knowing how to get out of it, adds salt to injury.</p>

<p dir="ltr">Fortunately, with the above tips, you can now understand why you do not feel motivated and know how to get yourself motivated.</p>

<p>Much of your ErgoChair can be changed and modified to meet you specific needs as a user. As an <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/office-chairs">ergonomic office chair</a> with premium seating modifications, it&rsquo;s designed to make work feel good. But not all know how to adjust ErgoChair Pro to meet their need.</p>
<p>In this blog, we&rsquo;ll explain the entire range of <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/office-chairs/ergonomic-chair">ErgoChair Pro</a>&nbsp;features&nbsp;in greater detail.</p>
<h2 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3s6">1. Seat Tilt</h2>
<p>The angle of the seat should be such that you feel most comfortable in an upright posture. The ErgoChair&rsquo;s seat tilt can be adjusted to provide an angle that counterbalances good posture: feet flat, back comfortably resting on the chair&rsquo;s back. Adjust as needed to create a seating surface that gently pulls you back to the chair as you sit in a strong, upright posture.</p>
<h2 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3s7">2. Back Tilt Tension</h2>
<p>The chair back allows the user to recline while keeping the chair balanced. This tension can be controlled with a hand crank on the chair. It can be increased, which increases the amount of force required to make the chair recline. Decreasing it makes the chair easier to recline.</p>
<h2 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3s8">3. Tilt Angle</h2>
<p>Customers love ErgoChair Pro&nbsp;for its comfortable tilt angle. Easily lever the handle up or down to gain a more tilt angle whenever you need it. Use this ErgoChair Pro&nbsp;feature&nbsp;to deeply relax your back and spine.</p>
<p><img class="image" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20200727/Tilt_Anglebf05ab0aa1.jpg" alt="adjust lumbar support" width="1920" height="1080" loading="lazy" data-height="1080" data-image-id="1*1NopxUPiErm1d8PsqwAd4Q.jpeg" data-width="1920" /></p>
<h2 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3s9">4. Back Recline</h2>
<p>The chair&rsquo;s back should be angled such that the user is neither slouched back nor leaning too far forward. The ErgoChair&rsquo;s seat back is adjustable through a handle located on the left side of the mechanisms.</p>
<p><img class="image" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210607/How_to_Adjust_Office_Chair_Tilt_Step_by_Step_206cf32b742.jpg" alt="Back Recline" width="1920" height="1080" loading="lazy" /></p>
<h2 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sa">5. Seat Height Adjustment</h2>
<p>The seat height ought to allow users to maintain both feet placed easily on the ground and a minimal amount of weight placed on the backs of the legs. The ErgoChair allows the seat height to be adjusted to accommodate the user at their ideal seat height.</p>
<h2 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sb">6. Seat Depth</h2>
<p>The seat&rsquo;s depth can be moved forward or backward, depending on the needs of the user. It should be adjusted so that the back of the chair does not press against the calves. A handle under the seat unlocks the seat allowing the user to make the desired adjustment to ErgoChair Pro.</p>
<h2 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sc">7. Headrest Adjustment</h2>
<p>The headrest can be angled to the user&rsquo;s idea position. It can also move up and down. The headrest has a height range of 70mm allowing it to be placed in the most appropriate position to the user.</p>
<h2 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sd">8. Armrest Adjustments</h2>
<p>The armrests can be moved up and down as well as left and right. Users need simply grasp the armrests and use a tab hidden under them to move the armrests up and down. The armrests can also move freely on the chair: left and right, in and out. Adjust such that the arms are resting easily at a natural angle that does not strain the shoulders or arms. You can check the pictures below for ErgoChair Pro (ErgoChair 2) armrest adjustment instruction.</p>
<p><img class="image" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210820/Must-Have-Accessories-for-Your-Office-Chair_1202c67e6112.jpg" alt="Seat Height Adjustment" width="1920" height="1080" loading="lazy" /></p>

<h2 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3se" dir="ltr">Creating an Ideal Sitting Posture: Adjusting Your Ergonomic Chair for Comfort and Health</h2>
<p>Adjusting an ergonomic chair for an ideal sitting posture is essential for maintaining good posture, preventing musculoskeletal discomfort, and promoting overall health and well-being. Here are step-by-step instructions for adjusting an ergonomic chair:</p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sf">Adjust the seat height</h3>
<p>Start by adjusting the height of the chair so that your feet are flat on the floor and your knees are at a 90-degree angle. Your thighs should be parallel to the floor. If your feet don't reach the floor comfortably, use a footrest.</p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sg">Adjust the seat depth</h3>
<p>The seat depth should allow you to sit with your back against the chair's backrest while leaving a small gap between the back of your knees and the seat pan. Adjust the seat depth so that you can sit with your back straight and your buttocks all the way back in the chair.</p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sh">Adjust the backrest</h3>
<p>The backrest should support the natural curve of your lower back (lumbar curve). Adjust the backrest height and angle so that it fits snugly against the small of your back, providing support to your lumbar spine.</p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3si">Adjust the armrests</h3>
<p>The armrests should be adjusted so that your arms are relaxed and your shoulders are not hunched. Adjust the height of the armrests so that your forearms are parallel to the floor and your elbows are at a 90-degree angle. If the armrests are obstructing you from getting close to your workstation, consider lowering or removing them.</p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sj">Adjust the recline angle</h3>
<p>Many ergonomic chairs have a recline feature that allows you to tilt the backrest backward. Adjust the recline angle to a position where you can maintain a slightly reclined posture while keeping your feet flat on the floor and your back supported.</p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sk">Sit back and relax</h3>
<p>Once you have made all the necessary adjustments, sit back in the chair and relax your shoulders. Maintain an upright posture with your back straight, shoulders relaxed, and feet flat on the floor. Avoid crossing your legs for prolonged periods, as it can lead to poor circulation and discomfort.</p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sl">Take breaks</h3>
<p>Remember to take regular breaks from sitting, and incorporate movement and stretching into your day to promote circulation and reduce muscle tension.</p>
<p>It's important to note that the ideal sitting posture may vary slightly depending on your body shape, size, and personal preferences. Experiment with different adjustments until you find the most comfortable and supportive position for your body. Consulting the chair's user manual or seeking guidance from an ergonomics professional can also be helpful in achieving the ideal sitting posture.</p>
<h2 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sm" dir="ltr">FAQs</h2>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3sn" dir="ltr">What is the ErgoChair&rsquo;s seat tilt for?</h3>
<p dir="ltr">The ErgoChair&rsquo;s seat tilt can be adjusted to provide an angle that counterbalances good posture: feet flat, back comfortably resting on the chair&rsquo;s back. Adjust as needed to create a seating surface that gently pulls you back to the chair as you sit in a strong, upright posture.</p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1i2ga85ji3so" dir="ltr">What is the back tilt tension's function?</h3>
<p dir="ltr">This tension can be controlled with a hand crank on thechair. It can be increased, which increases the amount of force required to make the chair recline. Decreasing it makes the chair easier to recline.</p>

Here are some ideas on how leaders can pave the way for a <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/ways-achieving-a-productive-work-environment">productive work environment</a>.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img alt="" loading="lazy" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210927/hybrid_work_environment_11052c8f09d.jpg" /></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Ensuring people are fresh, well-rested and taken care of, leadership can be enablers for high productivity. In addition, understanding others&#39; needs, being patient and giving time to others to wrap up the task is critical to the success of any team.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">2. Being Flexible, empathetic and supportive</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">As a business, you will need to agree that various communication mediums and tools will need to be used. But, again, making provisions, giving access and trusting your employees to use them effectively is the key. In addition, of course, newer tools will need an introduction on operating making effective use as was the case Webex was rolled in.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img alt="" loading="lazy" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210927/hybrid_work_environment_26dd9660e68.jpg" /></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Flexibility also means being available to your workforce, especially the remote and <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/is-hybrid-workforce-the-future-of-work-bto">hybrid workforce</a>, and other team members over a call, Whatsapp, emails, Face time and a host of other communication mediums; most of them a mix of formal and informal meetings.&nbsp; This surely can be tiring for some. Having policies that define what is expected will enable people to streamline their thoughts.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Taking regular feedback from employees and other stakeholders, Citibank announced Zoom Free Fridays early last year. What led to this decision at a global level?&nbsp; Employees globally felt the heat and stress of Zoom meetings as they managed the change to remote or hybrid working during the pandemic.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Working remotely and on a hybrid model has given extra pressure to supervisors and leadership.&nbsp; As managers are being trained on managing teams virtually, many companies are working on a two-pronged approach of increased empathy and trusting the team members while holding them accountable for their work.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Companies with centralized controls and authority will experience a difficult terrain compared to those who have empowered their employees.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">3. Staying Inclusive</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Leadership must recognize the efforts put in by hybrid and remote workforces. Hence, as business leaders take the lead, staying inclusive and listening to the needs of these hybrid and remote employees becomes important. Some companies have moved away from a hybrid model of holding meetings.&nbsp; Such hybrid meetings would include having some employees in a meeting room and others over a virtual call. Being present in front of leadership improves one&#39;s visibility.&nbsp; Remote and hybrid employees may miss out on these.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img alt="" loading="lazy" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210927/hybrid_work_environment_383f4ccea8c.jpg" /></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Stepping up to role modelling, a Quora business leader was the first to announce in his company that his office visits would be monthly. This restricts those employees who want to be present &#39;around&#39; leadership for visibility.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Meeting patterns have had to change to enable virtual visibility by insisting on cameras being switched on. This encourages non-verbal communication, which makes it easier and quicker to understand each other. However, on the downside, many employees have raised concerns on limited home office space and privacy, internet speed and connections and more to operate effectively.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">4. Maintaining Data Protection</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">As employees are spread geographically, a company&#39;s data is at great risk. Add team members across geographies, and you could have situations where data protection acts are breached. Additionally, with employees using a personal network, companies have had to re-examine how their IT infrastructure can protect client and company data.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img alt="" loading="lazy" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210927/hybrid_work_environment_44c0d4ae12b.jpg" /></p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">5. Being Collaborative</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">While each employee has their preferences and communication styles, as hybrid and remote teams work, employees will need to be sensitized to the importance of team collaboration.&nbsp; Many companies like Slack, Autonomous and more have worked on platforms to enable easier collaboration between team members.&nbsp; Such platforms allow for centralized communication boards, open meeting notes, keeping documents in an open filing cabinet to be accessed by those who need it. In addition, you can enable some amount of access levels to ensure that information does not reach beyond those where intended.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img alt="" loading="lazy" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210927/hybrid_work_environment_51ab56e4f9d.jpg" /></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Such platforms increase trust, open and quicker communication and more, thus realizing the team&rsquo;s goals. The need for everyone to trust and be patient with others increases as you are restricted in your communication connects.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: justify;">Wrap-up</h2>

<p style="text-align: justify;">To sum up, certain key traits can make a hybrid work environment successful. How employees imbibe such traits requires leadership to set examples. Such practices will take time as long as the team stays empathetic yet focussed on the goals. In sync with such practice, policies and guidelines will enable the entire workforce to work in a single direction.</p>

5 Traits of a Successful Hybrid Work Environment

<p>The difference between gross salary versus net salary is quite minor. Your employees&#39; gross salary is the sum of funds they get before taxes and other expenses are removed. For example, if you tell your employee that you can pay them $40 000 a year, this means that you pay them $40 000 in gross salaries.</p>

<p>Your employees&#39; net pay is the sum of money they take home after all deductions have been made. This is the sum of money they receive on payday.</p>

<h2>Gross vs Net Salary</h2>

<p>On your pay statement, the largest value is usually your gross pay. It is the overall amount paid to you by your company founded on your settled compensation or hourly payment. If your boss agreed to pay you $12 for every hour and you worked 50 hours in a period, your gross salary would be $600.</p>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="Difference Between Gross Salary and Net Salary" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210826/Difference-Between-Gross-Salary-and-Net-Salary238e18525e1.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<p>After all taxes and deductions have been deducted, your net pay is the sum of money you should get. The sum of money that is actually put into your account, or the value of your salary, is known as net pay.</p>

<p>In most circumstances, an employees&rsquo; net pay is printed in a bigger type on their paycheck or invoice, and it&#39;s often in bold to make it stand out more from their gross salary.</p>

<h2>Gross vs Net Income</h2>

<p>Net income is your real business revenue after expenses and permitted deductions are subtracted. Gross income is the total amount you make. These words are easily confused because gross income is used to compute net revenue.</p>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="Difference Between Gross Salary and Net Salary" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210826/Difference-Between-Gross-Salary-and-Net-Salary320dd70a728.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<p>When you manage your own company, making the distinction between gross and net income is critical for evaluating both your financial situation and the performance of your company. These figures can have a significant impact on how you pay your taxes. To comprehend the key distinctions between gross and net income, you must first understand how they are defined.</p>

<h2>What is the Difference Between Gross Salary and Net Salary?</h2>

<p>Before expenses, gross income is the whole income you earn (usually over the period of a year). Consider it the revenue you made from your services&mdash;the total of all your customer service fees before any deductions, taxes, or withdrawals.</p>

<p>Gross income is a useful metric for evaluating your company&#39;s profit potential and comparing year-over-year performance. You can identify which customers and sorts of initiatives bring in the most and least profit by looking at your numerous revenue sources. The profit your company makes after costs and permissible deductions is known as net income.</p>

<h2>Does Compensation Affect Employee Performance?</h2>

<p>Your monthly wage isn&#39;t only compensation for the labor you&#39;ve done. It is your remuneration depending on the value you have brought to the firm via your labor. Your wage is a reward for your dedication, toil, and commitment to the company&#39;s success.</p>

<p>Proper remuneration is critical for the growth of any business, whether you are an employee or a supervisor. When employees are highly compensated, they are more likely to work pleasantly and efficiently. This also aids firms in improving remote team effectiveness for certain <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/best-jobs-to-work-remotely-that-you-can-start">jobs that can be done remotely</a>.</p>

<h2>Goal Setting Benefits</h2>

<ul style="margin-left: 40px;">
	<li>Setting performance <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/successful-employee-goal-setting-with-5-worthy-tips">goals for employees</a> aids in prioritization and attention. They enable you to prioritize the most critical and urgent issues, focusing your attention and effort on certain ideas or projects.</li>
</ul>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="Difference Between Gross Salary and Net Salary" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210826/Difference-Between-Gross-Salary-and-Net-Salary486e59a7c64.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<ul style="margin-left: 40px;">
	<li>Setting performance targets for your employees makes you more accountable and allows you to make better decisions. Instead of entrusting your goals to someone else, you are personally responsible for them. You are better equipped to make decisions about what you are seeking if you grasp the significance of your objectives and what you want to accomplish.</li>
	<li>Goals can help you make the most of the skills you have. You&#39;re more prone to waste resources like money, energy, and personnel if you don&#39;t have any goals. Goals, on the other hand, provide guidance and ensure that resources are spent sensibly and successfully.</li>
	<li>Setting goals might assist you in determining what has to be accomplished.</li>
</ul>

<h2>Benefits of Working from Home</h2>

<h3>1. Better Work-Life Balance</h3>

<p>Many virtual positions also come with flexible hours, allowing employees to start and stop their days when it suits them best, as long as their obligations and dedicated work is finished on time and produces positive results. When it comes to adhering to the demands of your private life, having power over your work timetable can be beneficial.</p>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="Difference Between Gross Salary and Net Salary" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210826/Difference-Between-Gross-Salary-and-Net-Salary5fcd20f3fdd.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<h3>2. Less Commute Stress</h3>

<p>Commuting, on the other hand, is one of the drawbacks of getting to and from work. More than 30 minutes of commuting is linked to higher psychological distress, and studies show that traveling 10 miles to work each day is linked to health problems such as:</p>

<ul style="margin-left: 40px;">
	<li>A higher cholesterol level</li>
	<li>Blood sugar levels that are too high</li>
	<li>Greater risk of depression</li>
</ul>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="Difference Between Gross Salary and Net Salary" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210826/Difference-Between-Gross-Salary-and-Net-Salary6238e9d3da0.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<h3>3. A Customizable Office</h3>

<p>A great advantage of remote work is the ability to set up a cozy home office. You can set up your <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/home-office">home office</a> and make it anything you want, whether you merely want a better ergonomic design or you have medical conditions that necessitate specific office equipment.</p>

<h3><img loading="lazy" alt="Difference Between Gross Salary and Net Salary" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210826/Difference-Between-Gross-Salary-and-Net-Salary70762886864.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></h3>

<h3>4. Increased Productivity and Performance</h3>

<p>Working at home typically means reduced distractions, less internal politics, more quiet time, and less (or more productive) conferences. When you consider the absence of driving to work, virtual workers often have spare periods to dedicate to work and fewer distractions, resulting in a greater work ethic and efficiency&mdash;a major gain of working virtually for both staff and organizations.</p>

<p>When done correctly, remote work empowers employees and businesses to focus on what matters most: results. Furthermore, the workplace can produce &quot;false positives,&quot; which can lead to bias and prejudice. After all, while arriving early and departing late may appear to be more effort, overall performance is a far better predictor of efficiency.</p>

<h3>5. Impact on Sustainability</h3>

<p>Reduced commuting travel is one of the quickest and cheapest methods for firms and workers to minimize their carbon emissions and influence environmental issues. Indeed, throughout the pandemic response, the world has seen dramatically reduced emissions, congestion, and traffic, and being able to observe the consequences personally may be a motivator of virtual employment for everyone involved.</p>

<h3>5. Printer Cart</h3>

<p>Where do you put your scanner, printer, and other office hardware in a small office?

<h3>6. Multi-purpose shelf</h3>

<p>Space management is a crucial factor to consider when you have a small office. That&rsquo;s why you need a multi-purpose shelf to hold one or two things for you. Its vertical storage can provide more than enough space for you. You can use this space as a bookshelf, to hold an antique decorative object or do whatever pleases you (after all, it&#39;s nobody&#39;s office but yours). You may opt for the hanging types as they are more space efficient. A good alternative to the multi-purpose shelf is the utility cart. It performs the same function as the multi-purpose shelf, only that it comes with a wheel. You can push it around easily, thus, changing its position as you deem fit.</p>

<h3>7. Multi-layered wood workstation</h3>

It features a multi-level design that gives you more space to work. With this, your workstation can be optimized for quality productivity and efficient space management.</p>

The Importance of a Good Office Chair for Productivity and Health

<p>Did you know how important can be an ergonomic laptop setup for an office worker like you? Without any doubt, the right guide can help you get the best laptop setup that is suitable for your health and allows you to become more productive. We know that as an office worker, you often prefer working on a laptop due to its immense data-carrying capacity and portable nature.</p>

<p>Even though a laptop is comparatively convenient to use, and you can simply use it while keeping it on your laps, the risk of stress that a wrong posture can put on your neck and back is still high. Therefore, only a complete guide can help you avoid any health concerns while you plan your <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/the-ideal-minimalist-laptop-desk-setup">laptop desk setup</a>. The first piece of information that can help you in this journey are the basics that will you plan an ideal laptop desk setup. So, what are the basics for an ergonomic laptop setup?</p>

<h2>Basic Requirements for the Best Laptop Setup</h2>

<p>Often people think that of a laptop as an all-rounder gadget and believe they will not need anything extra to support the work ergonomics, but this idea is wrong. If it is a laptop, you are not necessarily supposed to work while placing it on your lap.</p>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="The Best Ergonomic Laptop Setup Guide for Office Workers" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210614/ergonomic-laptop-setup27bb2d2c64f.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<p>This position is bad for your posture and your work ergonomics. You would have observed it yourself that you have to slouch while working on a laptop. This position can put a lot of strain on your neck and spine. In such a situation, it would be ideal for elevating the laptop on the desk. So, that means you will need a dedicated <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/10-best-standing-desks-for-laptop">standing desk for your laptop</a>.</p>

<p>But is that the only basic requirement for the best laptop desk setup? No, there are other accessories that you need, so we have shared all their details below to help you best.</p>

<h3>Ergonomic Standing Desk</h3>

<p>The first and foremost requirement for an ergonomic laptop setup is an electric standing desk. When thinking about the right ergonomic desk, you should definitely think of going for our SmartDesk, as this desk is crafted while keeping the work ergonomics in consideration. You can easily adjust this desk with the help of the efficient built-in motors and align it in a way that lets you maintain the best posture.</p>

<h3>Ergonomic Office Chair</h3>

<p>You know that you will not be working only while standing throughout your active hours, so it would be wise to invest in an <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/office-chairs">ergonomic office chair</a> while planning an ergonomic laptop setup. The best ergonomic chairs are those that you can adjust as per the requirements, so you should get the one that has more adjustment features to offer you greater flexibility.</p>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="Ergonomic Office Chair" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210614/ergonomic-laptop-setup1ce820e6b60.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<p>You should ensure that your feet lay flat on the floor and your muscles are not under any stress while you work on your laptop. Having feet lying flat on the floor, your lumbar becomes neutral, and any strain on the lower spine is eliminated. All this helps you stay more active in your workspace.</p>

<h3>Laptop Stand</h3>

<p>An <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/standing-desks">electric standing desk</a> alone will not be enough to bring your laptop to the right height that allows you to avoid any neck strain. A laptop stand is the only accessory that will help you best in this situation. This stand helps you elevate the laptop on desk as per your requirement. The degree of elevation depends upon the users&rsquo; height.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img loading="lazy" alt="The Best Ergonomic Laptop Setup Guide for Office Workers" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210614/ergonomic-laptop-setup4c463bfc160.jpg" /></p>

<p>Ideally, your laptop screen&rsquo;s top third section should align with your eye level when you look up straight. So, you can think of adjusting the stand accordingly. If you cannot afford a laptop stand, you may think of using a stack of books to achieve the same.</p>

<h3>Separate Mouse and Keyboard</h3>

<p>Since you elevate laptop on desk to align it with your eye level, we advise that you should buy an external mouse and keyboard to relax your arms and shoulders while you work. In order to satisfy the work ergonomics, your wrists should be kept neutral and your elbows tucked close to your body while making a 90-degree angle with your arm. This posture helps eliminate any stress on your neck muscles and avoids rounded shoulder posture.</p>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="Separate Mouse and Keyboard" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210614/ergonomic-laptop-setup2f8bbd417cc.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<p>You may think of buying a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard to avoid the cord clutter from your work desk and keep up with the minimalism trend that promotes productivity.</p>

<h2>Anything Else?</h2>

<p>You can get an ergonomic laptop setup with these basic requirements, but taking care of a few minor details can help you have the best experience overall. You might be one of those office workers who find it difficult to work with a smaller screen, so you can think of installing a monitor to continue your work on the larger screen while using your laptop&#39;s keyboard and touchpad.</p>

<p>Working excessively can make you face burnout, and that is bad for your health and productivity. You should never miss out on your short breaks from work to re-energize yourself and continue working with the same zeal. If you still face problems with maintaining a good posture, you can think of using a posture app to correct your posture. There are various dedicated applications on Mac and PC in this regard.</p>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="Maintaining good posture" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210614/ergonomic-laptop-setup3244e03010e.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<p>In addition to all this, spending some time exercising will help you stay active and productive. At the same time, you continue working using the best laptop setup or <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/macbook-desk-setup-a-complete-guide">MacBook desk setup</a> that you have designed by using all the comprehensive guidelines that we have given above.</p>

Unlike the hard floor, the mat is padded to offer your cushioning, which is helpful to prevent knee pains too. It is comparable to your early morning jog. If you prefer to jog or run outside, would you prefer a hard surface like a cemented pathway or a green grassy surface? The cemented/ hard surface damages the ligaments connecting your knee cap and bones to the shin bone for those who don&#39;t know.&nbsp; That&#39;s why you get knee pain. With time, you are bound to have trouble jogging/running.&nbsp; A slight recline to the mat gives a gentle massage and relief to the instep of the sole.</p>

<h2>Buying Guidelines</h2>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="buying guilines" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210614/standing-pads-ergonomics2ae4199c404.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<p>An ergonomic standing mat builds in principles of ergonomics defined by the OSHA.&nbsp; OSHA necessitates the use of ironing out uneven surfaces, bunched surfaces, and more to avoid accidents.&nbsp; Before you buy an ergonomic standing pad/mat, here are few things to consider:</p>

<h3>a) Mat pressure</h3>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="pressure" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210614/standing-pads-ergonomics3f8ce879d0a.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<p>The anti-fatigue mat is designed to absorb the pressure of your body weight.&nbsp; An anti-fatigue mat for a lower body weight will not withstand and give a person with a higher weight the same relief.</p>

<h3>b) Mat thickness</h3>

<p>Going by a thumb rule, most mats have a thickness between 3/4th to 5/8th inches.&nbsp; If the mat is thinner or thicker, it may have little effect and not achieve your goal.</p>

<h3>c) Material of construction</h3>

<p>As you consider buying a best standing desk mat, look out for the material it is made of. The material of the standing mat has a large say in the resilience and comfort offered. Ensure that the material can be cleaned easily and is slip-resistant.&nbsp; Foam is the most commonly available material than others.&nbsp; The benefit of having leather or other material is little except for looks.</p>

<h3>d) Beveled Edges</h3>

<p><img loading="lazy" alt="beveled edges" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210614/standing-pads-ergonomics452c36a05d5.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<p>Beveled edges prevent accidents and tripping as you set your foot on the mat. Always look for mats with beveled edges when choosing a floor mat for standing desk.</p>

Even when the idea of having a <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/hybrid-remote-work-right-choice-for-a-future-work-model">hybrid remote work</a> setup has gained good traction, it is still important to focus on workplace culture&rsquo;s importance. Everyone talks about the culture at work, but only a few businesses actively work for it. People usually do not give much importance to the idea of creating an effective workspace culture, but if you do, you can improve your company&rsquo;s progress.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">We know that some of you have only heard this fancy term and might not be aware of the employment culture&rsquo;s importance or how you can adopt it. For that, you must know the workspace culture definition in the first place to judge how far you are on track and how you can make the necessary changes. Are you excited to dive in deeper? Well, let&#39;s read ahead.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: justify;">What is Workplace Culture?</h2>

<p style="text-align: justify;">In simple terms, workplace or workspace culture is the environment that you provide your employees. This culture is created by the amalgamation of certain aspects, specifically, your organization&rsquo;s tradition, values, leadership, behavior, attitudes, and degree of interaction.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img loading="lazy" alt="Workplace Culture: Why It’s So Important for Businesses?  " src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210611/workplace-culture122900cad42.jpg" /></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">This employment culture plays a significant role in improving your employees&#39; satisfaction and the company&#39;s progress. Since this culture defines the type of environment your employees will work in, it affects the ability of your workplace to retain or attract employees. It might take you several weeks to set up a culture for your workplace and adjust in one, but in most cases, good workplace culture has proved to be quite fruitful for the business.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: justify;">Why Is It So Important for Businesses to Have a Good Workplace Culture?</h2>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Do you like a healthy work environment? Well, everyone does, so that means a friendly and healthy culture work can help build a better bond between employees and engage them with their work better. Business owners often wonder what other benefits they can avail of from a good work culture that makes it vital for their business. Keeping that in mind, we have discussed all those factors in a little detail below.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">&middot;&nbsp; Creates an environment for healthy development.</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Good work culture is where the environment is friendly enough to promote every employee to have a say in the ongoing projects. In this way, you have a large pool of ideas that helps your company promote personal and professional growth. When the employees have a greater opportunity to speak, they become more vocal and start having a positive and healthy attitude towards work.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img loading="lazy" alt="Workplace Culture: Why It’s So Important for Businesses?  " src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210611/workplace-culture396f07df710.jpg" /></p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">&middot;&nbsp; Better financial performance.</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">It is a widely accepted opinion that your workplace culture is closely related to your business&#39;s financial performance. Since a healthy workplace culture promotes your employees to perform better, it increases your chances of gaining higher profits. Thus, this healthy culture at work improves your company&rsquo;s financial performance.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">&middot;&nbsp; Helps retain talented staff.</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Companies with a better culture tend to retain more talented employees. Your office is the place where your employees will be spending most of their time, so they want it to be healthy and friendly enough to like working and spending time there. Although you may think of promoting a <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/how-to-build-an-effective-hybrid-team-culture">hybrid team culture</a> to retain talented staff, you have to focus on creating a good employment culture to attract talented workers.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img loading="lazy" alt="Workplace Culture: Why It’s So Important for Businesses?  " src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210611/workplace-culture423b6653279.jpg" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" /></p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">&middot;&nbsp; Improves employees&rsquo; satisfaction and productivity.</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">When your employees get to work in an environment that makes them more vocal and innovative, they start loving their job and become more satisfied with them. More satisfied employees tend to do their tasks with greater focus and hence stay more productive while doing their tasks.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: justify;">How Can You Make It Work for Your Business?</h2>

Well, let&#39;s read further.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">&middot;&nbsp; Create a comfortable workplace.</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">In a healthy work environment, comfort comes first. Creating a comfortable work environment is the key to promote a healthy work environment during these times. You think of redesigning your office furniture and bring some <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/office-chairs">ergonomic office chairs</a> that are comfortable enough for your employees to sit while they work. Adding some office plants like lilies can also be a great idea.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img loading="lazy" alt="Workplace Culture: Why It’s So Important for Businesses?  " src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210611/workplace-culture5fac7615b45.jpg" /></p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">&middot;&nbsp; Promote healthier relationships between employees.</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">A stronger bond between employees results in effective communication, which in turn is better for the way your employees work.&nbsp; We understand that building healthy communication is often tough if you have a <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/4-important-things-to-make-successful-flexible-work-culture">flexible work culture</a>, so in such a case, you may think of having certain ice breaker activities that help your employees coordinate with each other better.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img loading="lazy" alt="Workplace Culture: Why It’s So Important for Businesses?  " src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210611/workplace-culture6b62f8d7144.jpg" /></p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">&middot;&nbsp; Motivate your employees!</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Your support is something that matters the most for your employees. So, once you start encouraging and motivating them and communicating with them more frequently, you move a step closer towards building a better workplace culture.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">&middot;&nbsp; Avoid Burnout</h3>

<p style="text-align: justify;">As a business owner, it is your responsibility to ensure your <a href="https://www.autonomous.ai/ourblog/how-to-avoid-burnout-and-maximize-productivity">employees do not have burnout</a>. An overworked and stressed staff is never capable of creating a positive culture at work. So, encourage your workers to leave office on time whenever it is possible. If your employers are working in a hybrid work setting, implement practices like no meeting Fridays.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img loading="lazy" alt="Workplace Culture: Why It’s So Important for Businesses?  " src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210611/workplace-culture7b5bc683e74.jpg" /></p>

<p>When working on a computer system, most users complain of backaches, stiff neck and shoulders, and other concerns related to the spine. Sitting for a long duration at a work desk, using a computer and an external or built-in mouse, has its own troubles. Initial symptoms from bad postures mostly start with pains, aches, and cramps/sprains where you find it difficult to work. Do not ignore these symptoms.</p>
<p>As much as these systems help us get work done, using them incorrectly affects your health and well-being. One needs to be careful about the duration of sitting in one place and the kind of posture one maintains. Users are known to have symptoms like carpal tunnel syndrome, a tennis elbow, or even Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) and more. National Health Services, UK, has some more details on tips to prevent these.</p>
<p>While you may not have the freedom to change the computer system or a workspace allocated to you, making minor adjustments to your body posture can enable a higher comfort minus these aches and sprains. You can prevent all of these by using simple techniques and managing your posture while at work.</p>
<p>One of the critical ones is to manage proper keyboard and mouse posture when in use.</p>
<p>Let&rsquo;s explore more.</p>

<p>Focus on the main purpose that is to reduce the avoidable strain of your fingers, wrists, arms, shoulders, and back. It is necessary to keep them in as natural and neutral position as you can.</p>

<h3 id="mcetoc_1hul49lgc2g0u">1. Position/Location</h3>
<p>With the ergonomic keyboard position directly in front of you, ensure that the mouse is by your side too. Some folks prefer to use a trackpad on laptops; it may not be the best as they are not designed for prolonged use. For users of an external mouse, ensure it is as close to the keyboard as possible. Why? Your arms don't have to be stretched to access it, straining your shoulders.</p>
<p><img class="image" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210609/What-is-the-Proper-Mouse-Keyboard-Position338e50315e6.jpg" alt="What is the Proper Mouse &amp; Keyboard Position?" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" loading="lazy" /></p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1hul49lgc2g0v">2. Height</h3>
<p>Having the mouse and keyboard at elbow height ensures minimal strain to your upper arms, elbows, and shoulders.&nbsp; Ensure that your elbows are not dropping below the levels of the keyboard and mouse with the correct ergonomic keyboarding techniques. Consider altering your table height or your chair height for any modifications.</p>
<p>The keyboard and mouse must be at the same level to ensure that the arms don't have to be lifted or lowered frequently as you alternate between the two. Every repetitive mall movement is what causes RSI.</p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1hul49lgc2g10">3. Placement to the front of the desk</h3>
<p>Ensure that you have placed the keyboard and mouse closer to the front of the desk (towards you). You can avoid stretching with this positioning, and you can relax your arms. Do remember that you will need space to rest on the desk as you operate the keyboard.</p>
<p><img class="image" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210609/What-is-the-Proper-Mouse-Keyboard-Position4d4fb17c359.jpg" alt="What is the Proper Mouse &amp; Keyboard Position?" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" loading="lazy" /></p>
<p>While most folks prefer to place the mouse next to the keyboard, this causes your arms to stretch to grab it.&nbsp; It is advisable to place the mouse in front of the keyboard. It may seem odd initially, but this is the best place, as the arms, shoulder, and wrist are directly in one line. Some folks advise using compact keyboards (those with a side number keypad) unless your role requires so.&nbsp; With a compact/smaller keyboard length, your mouse is closer to you. Those who require a keypad on the side, as their roles require so, can opt for a separate wireless keypad that has digits.</p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1hul49lgc2g11">4. Give rest to your hands</h3>
<p>When not using a keyboard/mouse, rest to your arms, elbows, and shoulders by resting them or dropping them from shoulder level.&nbsp; NHS, UK prescribes various exercises for resting your arms and shoulders.</p>
<p><img class="image" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210609/What-is-the-Proper-Mouse-Keyboard-Position5939c4516f4.jpg" alt="What is the Proper Mouse &amp; Keyboard Position?" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" loading="lazy" /></p>
<h3 id="mcetoc_1hul49lgc2g12">5. Avoid keyboard trays</h3>
<p>Using a keyboard tray should be your last option as it defies most principles of ergonomics. If unavoidable due to design, space, or user preferences, you need to ensure it has enough width to accommodate both the keyboard and the mouse. This avoids different levels for mouse and keyboard, as discussed earlier.</p>
<p><img class="image" src="https://cdn.autonomous.ai/static/upload/images/common/upload/20210609/What-is-the-Proper-Mouse-Keyboard-Position68dd5d314d8.jpg" alt="What is the Proper Mouse &amp; Keyboard Position?" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" loading="lazy" /></p>

Ergonomic Keyboard

What is the proper mouse & keyboard position? How do you choose the right mouse and keyboard for better health?

What is the Proper Mouse & Keyboard Position?

<p>Are you sitting down to click away without checking if you have the right posture? More often than not, users respond to this in the affirmative. Why? They just did not feel it was such a big deal to give it so much thought.</p>

<p>But then, as you sit in a car to drive it, what are the first few things you do? You check that the seat is comfortable to your height, your feet are reaching the foot pedals, your legs are not in a cramped position. You check the rearview mirror for a clear line of sight and adjust for any misalignments and more.</p>

<p>Sitting behind a desk, working for long hours, causes stiff body postures resulting in aches and pains of the neck, back, and usually the arms. Hence, when you operate your system every day, it is a necessity that you adjust the systems to your body&rsquo;s comfort and convenience.</p>

<p>How do you manage it? What should you do?</p>

<h2>What is Ergonomics?</h2>

<p>Enter ergonomics or the science of ensuring that you have the right body posture giving you comfort as you would be in a natural body position. It includes specially designed chairs that give you bespoke height, seat tilt, backrest recline, adjustable armrests, headrest &amp; footrests, and more.&nbsp; Purpose? So that your body joints and muscles are not strained or stretched unnaturally. If they are, they could lead to pains and aches and worsen your health. Occupational Safety &amp; Health Administration, USA, gives you clear guidelines on managing ergonomics for your body&#39;s comfort.</p>
