Are there any standards for adjustability ranges for office furniture and equipment?
The American National Standards Institute and the Human Factors Society developed a publication concerning work at computer workstations entitled “American National Standard for Human Factors Engineering of Visual Display Terminal Workstations,” ANSI/HFS Standard No. 100-1988, The Human Factors Society, 1988. This is not an OSHA enforceable standard, but rather serves as a guideline to furniture and equipment designers. Remember, proper posture and comfort through adjustability are most important.
