Why? When it comes to investing money into a functional working environment, the chair represents not only one of the larger expenses, but also one of the most cost effective. Other than an optical filter, the chair pays for itself faster than any other single addition to a computer work area.

EXAMPLE: Let's assume a good quality ergonomic chair costs $500.00. Let's also assume an expected chair life of ten years. A work year consists of approximately two hundred and forty work days, therefore, the chair, amortized over that ten year period costs a mere twenty cents per day! Even if you amortize the costs over just five years, the per day cost is only forty cents. If the average daily cost of an employee is $167.00 (40K per year, including benefits), you can see that it would take less than one tenth of one percent of an increase in productivity and efficiency to more than justify the investment in seating that fits the needs of each individual. And, perhaps more importantly, better postures will reduce the potential for work-related injuries and perhaps lower annual worker's compensation insurance costs.

Reimers, a bright new shining star in ergonomic office seating has come out with two great designs for 2001!
