Lenovo Announces Partnership with Featherlite and Myphyzio to Help Remote Workers

Lenovo has collaborated with Featherlite – a furniture manufacturing organization, and MyPhyzio - a professional ergonomic consulting firm to build an effective ‘Work From Home’ guideline for efficient remote working experience titled WFH 101. 

This initiative is aimed at educating everyone about maximizing productivity while working from home, and will focus on three aspects: 

  • Guiding consumers in setting up their dedicated workspace at home
  • Advising them on the right products and technologies to enable maximum productivity
  • Recommending best practices while working from home, to ensure healthy lifestyle, work-life balance, and avoid burnouts. 

According to a recent global Lenovo study conducted specifically on the evolution of work during COVID - 19, 43% Indian professionals surveyed complained of back pains, while 38% complained of neck pains, and more. Along with physical ailments, workers across India have also identified healthy work-life balance as another top challenge while working from home. In fact, 70% feel it is more important to have separate devices (personal computers, phones, etc.) for work and their personal life. 

These insights highlight the need for a proper WFH guidance to minimize discomfort, including ergonomically designed furniture, uninterrupted internet connectivity, large external monitor that adjusts to natural eye-level, appropriate headphones and other neatly arranged accessories. Maintaining right body posture, making time for lunch and coffee breaks, and following basic videoconferencing etiquette are also important for individuals working remotely.

Amit Doshi – Chief Marketing Office, Lenovo India said, “2020 has been a year with multiple industry-wide shifts and uncertainties. With the onset of the ‘new normal’, Lenovo has been determined to better empower remote workers of tomorrow with smarter technology, ergonomically correct equipment, and overall guidance and support. With this WFH 101 guide, we will attempt to simplify the overall WFH experience for consumers.” 

Satish Kumar Sharma, President, Featherlite Office Systems, commented on this initiative, “We understand the remote working trend has brought on a set of literal aches, mainly due to inadequate infrastructure at home.

We are also proud to utilize our wide reach in 60 cities and our “Make in India” range of products as we partner with Lenovo in the WFH 101 guide.”
