Workrite’s Sierra moves to your comfort zone
Congratulations, you now have the most advanced
workstation, one that allows you to quickly and
comfortably change the height of your worksurface
as you move throughout the day.
Our bodies weren’t designed to sit or stand for hours at a time.
Now, when you feel the need to move to a more comfortable working
position the Sierra moves with you. So, rather than squirming
in your seat late in the day, give your back a rest by standing for
a short time. Or, increase your alertness by alternating between a
standing and seated position during the day.
If you’re often on the phone, consider making calls while standing
you might be surprised at how energetic and condent your voice
will sound. If you want to make your meetings move more quickly,
try conducting them in a standing position — you will be pleased at
the prompt pace when people are thinking on their feet.
Now, with Workrite Sierra™, the choice is yours to work
at whatever level is most comfortable for you.

Every workstation has its unique characteristics.
To increase your comfort, follow these guidelines
when setting up and using your workstation.
A. Adjust the height of your seat so that your feet are resting
rmly on the oor. Use a footrest if you feel that your feet are
not supported properly.
B. The depth of your seat should allow the back of your knees to
extend beyond the edge of your seat. Thighs should be
approximately parallel to the oor.
C. Your forearm should be open at least 90°-100° to your upper arm.
D. Your wrists should not be angled up or down.
E. Set the height of the worksurface so that you can work without
straining or bending. Arrange commonly used items (stapler,
phone etc.) so that they are within easy reach.
F. The top one-third of your computer screen should be at or below
eye-level; the distance between your eyes and the monitor should
be 18” or more — typically arm’s length.
