Question:
We recently purchased new office chairs. How can we ensure that they comply with the workstation chair height and seat depth adjustability?
Answer:
This feature requires that chairs meet either the HFES 100 standard or the BIFMA G1 guidelines for seat height, and meet the HFES 100 standard for seat depth. The HFES 100 standard states the chair height must be adjustable over a range of 11.4 cm (4.5 in), between 38 to 56 cm (15 - 22 in). The BIFMA G1 guidelines state the chair height must be adjustable between (at least) the range of 37.5 cm to 51.2 cm (14.8 to 20.2 in). HFES 100 states the chair seat depth can either be adjustable or fixed, but must be include a depth of 43 cm (16.9 in). The majority of chair specification sheets will provide this information.
