Cubeland is dying! Workplace designs are changing to become open and flexible. Technology is becoming smaller and more mobile. Individual workspace is shrinking and being traded for more collaborative spaces. Together, these factors are transforming the modern office environment, and ergonomics needs to keep pace with these changes. This presentation will outline a range of ergonomic design considerations for agile workplaces, such as best practices for working with laptops, tablets or other mobile devices, the importance of postural variety such as with sit-stand working, or other kinds of dynamic workstations (treadmills, bikes, ellipticals etc.). The importance of an ergonomics process will be stressed and the value of this for LEED and WELL credit will be described.

Location Renaissance Hotel; 144 State Street, Albany
