                         Why is it important to sit correctly?





                       The way you sit at and arrange your desk can help protect you from stress
                      injuries. In fact, increasing your comfort by adopting the correct posture can
                     also increase your productivity. Proper positioning can promote comfort and

                   decrease fatigue, which can increase the tolerance of a desired seating position
                                           essential for consistency and compliance.
