Ergonomists have long recognized the benefits of alternating between sitting and standing positions. This document proposes a sit-stand workstation design that allows easy transition between postures. It would accommodate a wide range of body sizes and tasks. The demand for such furniture is increasing as more people recognize the health benefits of standing. The proposed workstation would promote fitness and comfort, help reduce back and neck pain, and allow instant height adjustment without tools.

Ergonomists have recognized the benefits of postural changes for many years, and have been recommending flexible
workstation designs that support easy transition from sitting to standing as one solution to the sedentary office environment.
Furniture that adequately accommodates sit-to-stand working postures for a wide range of body sizes and tasks has
historically been somewhat scarce and expensive, but that is now changing. As more people recognize the benefits of
standing, the demand is increasing
