Congratulations on your Strategy Air Sit-Stand Console! Welcome to the beautiful world of ergonomics, a.k.a. The world with too much information. Change is always hard, especially in dispatch communication centers; you’re used to your keyboard, mouse, console, and tchotchkes the way you like it. I get it! Take a deep breath and enjoy this tour through your new height adjustable console, as we have done the work for you. Here is an easy step-by-step guide on how to use a sit-stand desk to get the most out of it.

There is a lot to consider when you are planning a control room. There are many components that come together to make a successful operation.

Below are three ways to make the environment more comfortable during long shifts.
