Regardless of whether you’re a remote worker, running a business from home, or just have a space for the computer and the kids to do their homework, the fact is that your home office needs to be a tidy, organised space.

It might be the case that your ‘home office’ is, in fact, a small area or corner of a lounge or dining room. This is why finding the right computer workstation for your needs is essential if you want to keep things in order!More...

Bar Stools - The Versatile Seating Solution

by george 30. July 2010 07:40

Here at Desk Office, we’ve recently expanded our online catalogue to include a bigger range of bar stools. They’re certainly proving popular, and we think this is not only down the fact that our customers are saving up to and over 60% on the RRP of our bar stools, but also thanks in part to the fact that as a seating solution, bar stools are actually really versatile.

Bar stools tend to be quite lightweight, particularly the contemporary styles that tend to be constructed using chrome stems. Even with the addition of hydraulic or gas lift height adjustments, a footrest, and solid base, our bar stools remain sturdy but surprisingly easy to move around. This means that in the home, they can be picked up and moved around at will. So, for instance, if someone owns a bar stool and uses it on a regular basis as a kitchen bar stool, it can also be easily picked up and moved around the house or garden as a spare seating solution.

Smart Triathlon Training – How to Spot Over Overpronation

by george 12. May 2010 04:47

You’d be forgiven in thinking that sprint triathlon training is significantly less gruelling on your limbs than intermediate or long course training. But if your strength conditioning isn’t up to scratch, or you fail to spot problems that could lead to future chronic conditions, sprint training could prove much more punishing than you might have first thought.

If you find that your legs or feet are particularly uncomfortable after a triathlon running session, you may be suffering with overpronation. Pronation describes the rotating nature of the foot as it makes contact with the ground. Normally, the foot turns inwards slightly as it is placed on the ground, rotating as necessary to adapt to the level or inclination of the surface.

However, with overpronation, the foot arch flattens too much and effectively collapses the foot, causing the soft tissues in the foot to overstretch and joints to adjust, misalign and become loose and flexible. Obviously, this can lead to further problems such as muscle fatigue, chronic pain and even permanent injury in the lower leg. More...

Roof Fall Arrest Systems - What’s Holding you Up?

by george 22. June 2009 14:32

The dangers of working in high places should be apparent immediately in any industrial application – and in domestic situations as well – but each year dozens of people die in falls from heights while on the job, with even more injured; these statistics grow when home accidents are factored in.

In order to prevent these deaths, it is critical that every worker uses a certified fall arrest system while working at any height over six feet. Remember that sometimes it is not the height of the fall that causes the injury, but the way in which the victim lands.  There are several types of roof fall arrest systems designed to halt a person’s drop either immediately or before hitting the ground. In many cases, workers claim that the more secure the system, the more it may impede their work. This is just a part of the safety procedure, however, and needs to be managed in order to ensure a safe return home at the end of the day. More...
