Microsoft's own PC Accessories group released the results of a study yesterday conducted around the world to determine common modern computing habits of workers and the implications of those habits, with a particular focus on the health, comfort and productivity impact on workers.
Main Findings: A significant majority of the computing workforce is uncomfortable on at least a daily basis (85 percent), with current desk setups and office accessories partly to blame. Here were some other stats:
- U.S. workers spend six hours a day on their computers for work, and another hour at home for personal use. That's essentially more time on your computer than you sleep at night!
- 70 percent of workers use desktops
- 19 percent have laptops with an external mouse and keyboard
- 90 percent primarily work out of an office
- Fewer than 1 in 3 workers report that their external keyboards and external mice are ergonomic
- Fewer than 1 in 4 workers have requested new office accessories to address their discomfort
