But how do you set up a nice home workplace? How do you choose a good office chair, where should you pay attention?

Working from home requires more from you than working at your normal office. There is more distraction such as your children, the cat or your home -working partner and there is often less thought about a healthy ergonomic workplace.

And that while you often work a little longer at home, take a break less quickly and also get started "just as quickly" in the evening. A good workplace is essential to be able to work at home in the future without complaints on neck and shoulders.

Setting up a good workplace starts with a good desk. Choose a desk that fits your work and wishes. Do you need an extra screen and do you use an ergonomic keyboard and a notebook in addition to your laptop? Then go for a larger desktop of at least 120 cm length.

How do you choose a good office chair?

You office chair must meet a number of requirements. The basis of these requirements is the adjustable gas lift. It is important that the gas lift is set so that your legs are in a 90 -degree angle.

Also note that you select an office chair with two armrests: they support your arms and ensure that your shoulders and neck are relieved. It is nice if the armrests are also adjustable in height. A good office chair also has a nice seat. A wooden kitchen chair is really not tasty after 2 hours, but you may have already experienced that. In addition, especially if you quickly suffer from your back, it is advisable to take an office chair where the backrest has an "s-shape". Then your back has support and you can work healthy and ergonomically. Finally, a nice office chair also has a sturdy base with 5 wheels.
