Monitor Arms

In order to get the most productivity out of employees, many business owners know that making them comfortable at work can be a key to keeping people at their desks working for longer periods of time without excessive breaks. One of the factors that can cause fatigue or even pain to an employee is having an uncomfortable viewing angle or height on their monitor. Now, depending on the furniture and building configuration, some things are unavoidable, but one thing you can do to make sure that no one has to strain their neck or look at an odd angle in order to work on their computer monitor is to get monitor arms that can suspend the monitor over the desk wherever the employee sees fit for their own comfort.

The Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) discusses both viewing distance and height and side-to-side angles as major factors in whether or not a monitor is placed correctly for a worker to be comfortable and free from strain. Monitors should be placed so the top of the monitor is at or just below eye level, and when possible, workers should view the monitor straight on. Additionally, the tilt of the monitor being too much toward or away from the viewer can make the screen difficult to read and strain the eyes.

Monitor arms solve all of these problems. With a monitor arm that attaches to the back of most standard LCD monitors, you no longer rely on the adjustment options of the stock stand that came with the monitor. You can adjust the height, position, and tilt of the monitor quickly and easily, and even adjust it on the fly if you change sitting positions and find yourself uncomfortable again. Monitor arms are a low-cost way to make sure that your employees are as comfortable as they can be with reading their monitors and show that you are committed to their well-being. With prices on some models as low as $50, outfitting your entire office with monitor arms and or wall mounts for its monitors, it not too high a price to pay to make it easier for people sit in front of their screens for longer without breaks and drops in productivity.

Medical Supplies

When stocking and supplying an office, many businesses overlook the need and benefit of having medical, health, and personal care supplies on hand for their employees. Regardless of whether the business or industry you are in puts your employees at risk of injury, or just cuts and scrapes (those paper cuts can be nasty!), having a stocked first-aid kit and other medical supplies on hand is a good idea in case of accidents, mishaps, or emergencies.

No matter if you are looking to have a simple first aid kit with bandages and the bare necessities or a full blown stock of medical supplies that includes everything a paramedic would want, Office-Supplies.us.com has you covered. We have cold/hot packs from 3M and Kimberly Clark that are perfect for accidental falls, bruises, and minor injuries, gauze pads, sponges, and dressings for cuts and scrapes, and everything in between. Our first aid kits and personal care selection include over the counter medication like Advil and alka-seltzer, as well as eyeglass repair kits, bandages, and stress balls. To be sure, nothing can come in handy like having pain relievers and other such medication ready for an employee who is feeling under the weather and just needs something to take care of the symptoms. Having headache and cold medicine on hand can save you from having an employee go home with relatively harmless symptoms. The same thing goes for minor cuts that could send someone to the drug store and home just to stop a small cut from bleeding because no bandages were available.

Our selection of healthcare supplies is so extensive it includes everything you need to stock the exam rooms in your medical office. We have exam tables, exam room organizers, medical exam gloves, and medical cabinets. Our exam tables, overbed tables, and tray stands, all by Hausmann, are the same quality items you find in hospitals and medical offices, but you can get them online from us and save yourself money and hassle. All of the supplies we carry are from trusted brands and chosen for quality, and we offer convenient shipping and quantity discounts if you want to save money by having Office-Supplies stock your entire medical office. If you need any help finding specific items, let our knowledgeable sales staff direct you to exactly what you're looking for and save you money while they're at it.
