Echo Swap Fixed Desks for Adjustable Ones - This was the Result…
The Brief
When the managers heard of the improvements to posture and energy levels that height adjustable desks can bring, they wanted to give employees the opportunity to try them.
Changes to a work environment can be met with resistance or reluctance. Is this something that is going to benefit the team, or is it just an experiment off the back of a workplace trend? The team at Echo, a digital marketing agency in Peterborough, put this to the test.
There was scepticism. The biggest uncertainty was whether the adjustments between sitting and standing would be disruptive in any way.
Ultimately, they were excited to see if there would be any positive changes in comfort, posture and work habits.
They wanted desks that would give employees the freedom to choose how they prefer to work and adopt a healthier work lifestyle.
The ultimate goal was to boost workplace satisfaction and energy levels. Sitting down for eight hours or more a day at a fixed desk was hindering rather than helping productivity.
