This document discusses building a business case for investing in sit-stand desks in the workplace. It notes that physical inactivity is a major global health risk and contributor to mortality. Research shows that sitting for long periods increases aches and pains. Sit-stand interventions can boost productivity by up to 53% over time.

JustStand Summit 2013 - Dr. Genevieve HealyErgotron, Inc.
Dr. Genevieve Healy's research focuses on reducing prolonged sitting, especially among office workers. Her work shows that regularly interrupting sitting is important for heart health. Current research examines how sitting varies between populations and strategies to reduce sitting in workplaces. This includes the Stand Up Australia program, which investigates sitting patterns in office workers and effective strategies to reduce and change sitting time, such as organizational policies and environmental modifications.
Ann Ruchy is the Chief Talent Officer of Salo, LLC. Her presentation will introduce attendees to Salo and their innovative approach to workplace design and employee wellness. As the first BlueZonesTM certified work place in America, Salo embraces a holistic approach to finding purpose, improving health and increasing longevity. Salo's workplace incorporates treadmill desks, walking meetings, and rituals focused on movement, nutrition, outlook, and connection to encourage employee wellness. Salo has experienced benefits such as average weight loss of 8.8 lbs among employees, a 37% drop in cholesterol and triglycerides, increased productivity and profitability, higher employee happiness, and reduced healthcare costs.
Dr. James Levine discusses the health risks of prolonged sitting and sedentary behaviors. He introduces various technologies and deployment strategies to encourage movement in workplaces, schools, and healthcare settings. This includes treadmill desks, active workstations, wearable devices, and gamified applications to promote physical activity throughout the day. The goal is to scale these solutions and make movement a natural part of daily life and work.
The document discusses the health risks of sitting and sedentary lifestyles. It notes that Americans spend 77% of their waking hours sitting, which increases the risks of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and other chronic conditions. Sitting reduces blood flow and muscle activity, slowing metabolism and increasing health risks. The document advocates for providing ergonomic and wellness programs in the workplace to increase productivity and reduce healthcare costs by addressing the risks of sitting disease.
This document describes Ergotron's WorkFit sit-stand workstations that promote alternating between sitting and standing positions. The WorkFit models allow easy adjustment between seated and standing heights and keep keyboards and monitors at the proper ergonomic position. WorkFit workstations provide natural health benefits like increased blood flow and calorie burn from standing, as well as improved focus, energy and productivity compared to solely sitting.
