Assistive devices

Do you have a health restriction that impacts your ability to work, e.g., at the office, so that you need a specific work aid for physical relief? Has a doctor already provided a recommendation, for example, for an adjustable desk, a standing desk, an ergonomic chair, or a vertical mouse? Perhaps you would like to inform yourself about how to best use your current equipment and furnishings for the sake of your health?

For information about these matters, see How to apply for assistive devices.

We are happy to answer any other individual questions you may have.

Getting the best of your office chair

To get the most out of your office chair, you need to adjust it properly. This means it needs to be adjusted individually.

You can read and print out the German instructions for the Shape Economy office chairs (PDF).
