17/02/2010 Ergonomics for Better Backs

It is estimated that back discomfort costs the UK economy an astonishing 13 million working days a year; it is the second most common cause of absence from work and it can be devastating for staff and employers alike.

Whether it is a simple twinge through to days off, bad backs can reduce productivity at its best and cause untold havoc at its worst, and all of this translates to an estimated cost to the NHS, Local Businesses and the UK economy of £5 billion a year (Source: BackCare UK). A sobering thought!

The easiest way to combat this onslaught is to provide all staff who sits at a computer or desk for long periods an ergonomically designed chair. These chairs are designed to alleviate the issues associated with long periods of sitting and repetitive movements. They are adjustable to offer support to the individual user and have a number of functions all designed to reduce back problems.

Each desk should be adequately risk assessed to ensure that no unnecessary twisting or bending occurs and every member of staff should be encouraged to take regular breaks to get up and walk around.

Making a small investment of good quality ergonomically designed chairs now means that your staff will rarely have back problems and your business will reap the rewards.

13/02/2010 New Website Launched

Andrews Office Furniture is proud to present its brand new website, hot off the digital press and ready for you to use.

We felt that our old site was not as good as it could be and took the decision to update it and make it much more user friendly. Through consultation with our Web Developer, we identified what we felt were the weak areas of the old site and added a few new bits too.

The new site is far more user friendly, featuring an easier navigation system to the left side of the screen, which means you can find the furniture your looking for quicker and easier than before. We have also updated the search function which should now allow you to search the entire site for a specific product or range of products.

New additions to the site include a news sections where you can find out the latest news and offers from Andrews Office Furniture, and also and newsletter subscription section where you can sign up to our newsletter, a monthly email about our news, views and offers.

Along-side this we also have a “Go Green” section. Andrews Office Furniture is committed to being as green as possible; we currently recycle as much of our packaging as possible and utilise used furniture wherever possible. All to try and down our carbon footprint!

Keep checking our website for the latest offers and products, but if you would like the easy option, sign up for the newsletter and we will tell you when there is something new happening at Andrews Office Furniture.
