It’s that time of the year when the talk of healthy New Year’s resolutions begins to buzz. We’ve all heard the popular pledges like packing healthy lunches and joining a gym. Surprisingly, many companies are making healthy resolutions for 2016 as well. Unlike the classic resolutions that fizzle out by the end of February, companies are serious about upholding their healthy oaths for 2016 and beyond.
It’s no surprise that 2016 will be the year of the sit/stand office desks, as Cincinnati office furniture companies like us have been watching this trend grow over the years. Before you roll your eyes at just one more article hyping up this moving office furniture, we aren’t going to rattle off the health stats you’ve already heard. Instead, we’ll give you the one main reason you certainly hadn’t thought of why sit-stand desks really are the future of office design.
All of the trendy companies we associate with such as AOL, Google, Twitter, and Facebook have adopted sit-stand options into their office furniture design. While these companies are already places sought out as a top place to work, nothing can beat the plain and simple effect of giving people a work environment with options. Facebook’s office furniture selections feature over 250 standing desks and the company has reported a higher level of energy around the office since making the switch to standing.
On a smaller level, local startups across the country are also hopping on board this trend. These small businesses claim sit-stand desks not only benefit employees’ wellbeing, but also gives their office a hip look and feel that draws in recruits. The bottom line is that 2016 will be exploding with sit-stand desks not only for their health benefits, but also for their allure and ability to draw in new recruits.
