by Rebecca Walker — August 28, 2009—Ergotron has introduced the WorkFit workstation, a sit-or-stand mobile computer workstation that allows office workers to easily move from seated to standing and back to a seated position. It reduces back strain, increases productivity and burns more calories while promoting healthier, more productive computing, says the company.
The new WorkFit workstation helps employees achieve the sit or stand movement their bodies naturally crave, while relieving the strain and fatigue commonly associated with extensive office computing. For business managers, owners and facility/office designers, WorkFit delivers a small footprint, mobile office platform, which can be rolled to “point-of-work” and adapted for temporary employees, traveling guests and short-stay telecommuters.
Designed by Ergotron, a global manufacturer of digital display mounting and mobility products, the WorkFit workstation uses patented Constant Force lift technology to offer one-touch adjustment of the negative-tilt keyboard and monitor.
With 25 inches of height adjustability, WorkFit allows workers to easily lift LCD screens or laptops to match their body’s position while they sit or stand, providing unsurpassed ergonomic comfort, says the company. Just as importantly, WorkFit’s independent adjustment and negative tilt keyboard ensures optimum elbow and wrist placement to avoid repetitive stress injury.
