United Arab Emirates, 25th September 2006 - Ergonomics is the study of people and their working conditions, where workstations are designed around the employees themselves. As a significant amount of employee time is being spent in the seated position, matching the workplace to their comfort is the basic tenet of ergonomic practice. In short, well designed office furniture is a positive step towards the health and morale of employees and ultimately, for maximizing efficiency.
Buying ergonomic furniture, whilst also keeping pace with the latest technological advances in office planning, can be a costly business. It can be difficult to see the financial reward as many of the benefits are not altogether tangible or quantifiable, something modern-day business require before spending any money. But now, help is at hand, in the shape of The Office Exhibition, the leading office furnishings event for manufacturers and distributors from around the Gulf and beyond, which showcases state-of-the-art developments and technological advances from the world of office planning and design.
Regarded as the most prestigious event of its kind in the region, the 2007 Office Exhibition will grow a further 50% in size compared to last year’s showcase of over 6,000sqm.
Organiser Paula Al Chami of dmg world media commented. ‘Visitor and exhibitor attendance figures increase year on year with numerous high profile exhibitors already expressing huge interest in next year’s show. This is in line with the amount of commercial buildings coming up in the region as more and more companies set up their headquarters here as well as companies expanding their businesses.’
The Office Exhibition will be held from the 3rd – 5th June 2007 in the new state-of-the-art Zabeel Hall that is currently under construction at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre.
