More working Americans (52%) say they are spending more time on devices over the past two years and this additional screen time has taken both a physical and emotional toll on both remote and in-office workers, according to a new 2022 “Work Habits Study’ commissioned for National Business Furniture by Material+, formerly Kelton Global.

The study, which surveyed adults ages 18+, examines how the past two years have affected how people are working and how that has impacted their work habits and spaces.

The good news is Americans are reimagining how and where work happens.

“At a time when people are adjusting to new ways of working, it’s more important than ever to create an environment that promotes good health, productivity and low-stress,” said Tonya Dybdahl, space planner and design department manager for NBF.

THREE TIPS FOR CURATING A HEALTHY WORKSPACE

The National Business Furniture Work Habits Study, in partnership with Material+, was conducted online with 1,006 Americans ages 18+ in June 2022. In this particular survey, the margin of error was +/- 3 percent. Quotas were set to ensure reliable and accurate representation of the U.S. population.
