ONSITE CHAIR ASSESSMENTS AND REPAIRS

Chairs should be assessed at least once a year

Advantages of regular chair assessments:

• Catch small problems before they become big problems
• Catch problems while a chair may still be under warranty
• Prevent Injuries

 

Falls from chairs are among the most common office accidents, accounting for the greatest number of disabling injuries in offices.  Prevention of this is helped by proper use of chairs and periodic assessment of chairs to detect potential failure.
