welcome to the active generation EFG Active, The Next Generation Sit-Stand Workstation The way we work and the way we interact with each other is evolving. The design of office interiors is a key enabler for this progression. Activity Based Working has become increasingly adopted by forward thinking organisations who recognise the benefits of flexibility and collaboration. Driving greater productivity, reducing capital costs, as well as attracting and retaining the greatest talent. The leading catalyst to this trend is the recognition that reputable employers value and are investing in the Wellbeing of their people – promoting and encouraging activity within the workplace. The benefit to your business and your people, of promoting activity is undeniable – the sit-stand desk provides an everyday solution to help deliver these goals. The sit-stand desk is not a new concept across Europe. In Scandinavia over 90% of workstations are now sit-stand. By contrast, less than 1% of workstations in the UK have sit-stand capability – this is changing, as more and more organisations invest in their people. welcome to the active generation... “Workplaces can be intentionally designed to nurture and drive improved business performance”. How Investing In The Workplace Can Make A Tangible Difference Introducing Sit-Stand workstations can drive quantifiable results towards improved business performance. By introducing a Wellbeing culture into the workplace, we have a huge opportunity to deliver tangible benefits to our businesses. Multiple studies have indicated that providing working environments that stimulate engagement and innovation, results in the reduction of absenteeism, which costs UK businesses an estimated £8.4bn per annum. Implementation of innovative workplace design and wellbeing schemes, such as active working, can immediately increase productivity levels by up to 40%. An estimated seven in eight employees are uncommitted to their jobs, costing UK businesses an estimated £15.1bn a year. Incorporating EFG Active into your workplace offers a truly cost effective solution to your business. Improvements in employee engagement, employee absence and employee retention are just some of the benefits that the experience of sit-stand can provide.

How Easy Is It? “Standing up for three hours a day is as good for you as running ten marathons a year” - Dr Mike Loosemore Introducing sit-stand workstations, provides you with the opportunity to work at the right height for your individual needs - we are all different shapes and sizes. The EFG Active allows you to set your sitting and standing positions with 1mm height precision. The transition from a traditional sedentary desk to an active workstation is surprisingly seamless.
