Abstract

Office workers frequently report discomfort in the neck, back and shoulders. Extreme and prolonged static postures are known risk factors. Sit-stand workstations encourage regular postural changes and tend to reduce discomfort. Head and upper back deviations were recorded for ten adults entering data using a seated desk and two sit-stand desks following three twenty-minute cycles with 6 or 9 min standing. Participants reported their perceived back pain, neck pain and fatigue following each recording.
