How can you equip your office and business with ergonomic office chairs? Choose office chairs that fully comply with health and safety regulations!
At a time when digitalisation and process automation are leading to a significant increase in the amount of time spent in front of a computer screen, choosing the right office chair is no longer merely a matter of comfort, but has become a strategic business and legal decision. Every civil servant, manager or office worker spends hours at their desk every day. That is why equipping an office or government department with office chairs is a crucial investment that cannot be left to chance!
It is important to bear in mind that purchasing the appropriate equipment is not an option, but a legal requirement set out in the Regulation of the Minister of Labour and Social Policy on general health and safety at work. An unsuitable office chair that does not comply with the regulations poses a real financial risk. In the event of an inspection by the National Labour Inspectorate (PIP), this may result in fines and, in the long term, increased sick leave among staff due to musculoskeletal disorders.
Mark Adler, a Polish producer ergonomic chairs and office chairs, understands these stringent requirements. We provide solutions that not only meet but often exceed the minimum standards, guaranteeing a risk-free choice for both small businesses and large organisations purchasing in bulk. In this article, we will guide you through the intricacies of health and safety regulations and present models that will ensure the safety of your staff and give you peace of mind.
Health and safety is an investment – compliance of office chairs with the PN-EN 1335 standard
When selecting office chairs for a government department, public body or large company, procurement departments often focus on price and durability. However, in the context of employment law, compliance with health and safety regulations is of paramount importance. The law clearly states that office chair The workstation must be stable, allow for adjustment of the seat and backrest height, and ensure freedom of movement. It is also required that the base has five or six legs, and that the castors are suitable for the type of floor surface.
To ensure that an office chair meets these stringent criteria, it is worth checking the certificates it holds. The PN-EN 1335 standard is a European benchmark for quality that goes beyond basic legal requirements. A certified ergonomic chair bearing the PN-EN 1335 mark guarantees that key dimensions (seat depth, backrest height, armrest height) comply with the highest standards, minimising the risk of injuries and ailments. For organisations, purchasing models that meet this standard is effectively a risk-free choice from a legal perspective.
It’s worth taking a look at ergonomic chair not as an expense, but as an investment. Spinal conditions and the associated sick leave (ZUS ZLA) are one of the main causes of absenteeism in office work. By investing in Mark Adler ergonomic chairs, which feature advanced support mechanisms (e.g. adjustable lumbar support), an organisation can effectively reduce the risk of pain-related ailments. As a result, staff are more focused, less tired and more productive. Ergonomics is the key to increased productivity – and this is a benefit that will be appreciated by both the budget officer and the CEO.
