'Office workers should stand for 2 hours'

THERE'S now clear evidence that for the sake of their health, office workers need stand up and move around for at least two hours during the working day.

OFFICE workers should use sit-stand desks to ensure they are on their feet for a minimum of two hours a day during working hours, according to new recommendations.

THIS daily quota should eventually be bumped up to four hours a day, breaking up prolonged periods of sitting with standing-based work and regular walkabouts, the guidelines say.
