Hi,
Has anyone reported any musculoskeletal problems or other issues that
may be associated with the type of chair? Do the current chairs meet all
the requirements of DSE regs? If so I think you may struggle to persuade
the employer to spend more money just on a quality, functionality and
aftercare perspective.........I know I would! In my experience just
because it isn't an all singing and dancing top of the range chair does
not mean it is not comfortable and suitable.
Kind Regards
Lesley

Good Morning,
I wonder if anyone else has any views on this topic...
We currently purchase chairs etc from a well known large office supplies
company and dont usually spend more than 50pound on a chair for anyone
in our organisation, not even our office based staff who sit at their
desks for a considerable amount of time (in the region of 65 staff). I
am thinking of trying to persuade my organisation to look at what and
who we are ordering from and compare the quality, workmanship,
functionality and after care service.
Is this reasonable or do you think I am fighting a losing battle?
I really would appreciate your views on this one, and as always I look
forward to your responses!
Rgds
Rachael
