Ergonomic home working – Guides for Employers and Employees
As more people are working from home on a regular or permanent basis, setting up an ergonomic workspace in the home is more important than ever. We've produced two guides, one explaining employers’ responsibilities to their remote working employees, and the other, a practical guide for users of laptops and computers to optimise their home working environment, and help improve productivity and comfort.
