Thanks to Covid-19, many more of us are working from home now, so our home offices should be a healthy and safe place in which we work. Here they are for you to consider:

Sit-to-stand desks and converters
Sitting for too long puts pressure on your lower back and can cause musculoskeletal harm. Using a sit-to-stand desk enables you to alternate working between sitting and standing and will reduce pressure on your lower back. Converters can also be attached to a desk and adjusted to match your required height for standing or sitting and working.
