Designing and Fitting High Grade Executive Office
Posted By on March 10, 2010
There comes a time when quality and ergonomic values meet, and the value of a working environment is more than just a pleasurable space to work in, but an essential for health and creativity.
Taking care of the design may seem to be simply an issue of creating something that is “pleasing to the eye”, but it is much more. Providing the right furnishing so that sickness problems such as Back pane and Repetitive Strain Injury do not affect critical team members is absolutely essential.
In the UK, the Health and Safety Executive indicates that one in every six sickness days is lost from back pain, from which more than 80% of the population suffer.
Across the board these timing losses result in significant costs for the average company. When these sickness absences apply to Company Executives the costs can be significant and in some instances the loss of capability crippling.
This is why the use of quality furniture is so essential in the Executive Office. Providing one high quality chair is not an expense but a valuable investment.
When creating the Executive Office, with so much at stake, consideration of the threat of the financial effect of getting the design wrong is of vital importance and adequate risk assessment of the consequences of getting it wrong are critical.
Accounting for these issues are the primary essentials for considering forming effective working spaces for Company Decision makers.
Making the working environment a pleasurable space to be in by providing well designed furniture, lighting, storage, fittings, decoration is all about giving value which can pay back many times over, including improving staff retention.
When making the decision about devising or evolving the staff environment it can prove a costly error to miss out on quality and design.
