* A Washington State analysis of case studies related to office ergonomics showed the median productivity increase following an ergonomic intervention was 12%. Other studies suggest that employees who are provided with well-designed ergonomic furniture and are trained to use it see an average 18% increase in productivity.
† Using two displays instead of one eliminates toggling between documents, decreasing the time it takes to complete tasks. Studies show an average productivity increase of 20–30% when using two displays. Depending on the task, environment and configuration, productivity increases can range between 5% and 100%.
