Electric office chair for disabled person provides increased mobility

An electric lift office chair for the disabled from VELA has smooth-running wheels, with plenty of room between the wheels so a person can “walk” or push the chair around. 

If you have a disability in your legs or back, it can therefore be a relief to be able to “walk” around while sitting down. When you are not walking the chair around, you can simply apply the handbrake and continue your activities. 

Getting around can be very important for your self-esteem and self-perception, as you can now carry out many daily activities all by yourself. Of course, it all depends on your disability, but the chair will help you along the way. Take the test and learn which is the right chair for you.

The armrests marks the boundary of the seat, so you feel safe and secure.

Other uses for the office chair with brakes

A standard workstation doesn’t always meet the needs of every employee. Ergonomic adjustments are often necessary to ensure well-being and efficiency and prevent muscle and joint pain, fatigue, and work-related injuries.

Experience shows that customised ergonomic chairs can significantly improve employees’ work lives and overall well-being. With the right ergonomic adjustments, workplaces can provide optimal conditions for all employees, regardless of their individual needs.

Preventing workplace injuries

VELA work chairs can be adjusted in height, lumbar support, and armrests to ensure proper seating posture and reduce strain on the body. This is particularly important for employees with specific needs or injuries that require additional support. Ergonomic solutions can enhance work comfort and reduce the risk of workplace injuries.

Preventing workplace injuries requires a proactive approach to ergonomics. Companies can create a healthy and productive work environment by investing in adjustments such as low back pain office chairs. This not only promotes employee well-being but also increases efficiency and reduces absenteeism.
