Correct Posture Month
Due to COVID-19, many of us suddenly switched our work environment from office to home creating all kinds of unusual home set-ups that can lead to poor posture. Poor posture can affect our health and well-being and can lead to chronic pain. There are ways to improve posture.
TIPS TO IMPROVE POSTURE
While standing, keep your head high, shoulders back and stomach tucked in.
When sitting, keep legs perpendicular to the floor, with your rear end touching the back of the chair. Distribute weight evenly over both hips and keep feet flat on the floor. When sitting at a desk or table, arms and elbows should rest on the surface taking the strain off the shoulders.
It is important to remember to get up at least every half hour. This will also help avoid computer eye strain. We hope these tips will help you. Take care of yourself while staying safe at home.
Happy Passover
We wish our clients, friends and family who celebrate a Happy Passover. The holiday season will take some creativity this year to include social distancing during Seder’s. We know some of you will make the most out of this unique Passover holiday and connect over video conferencing platforms. We hope that you and your family are and stay in good health.

Stay in Business During COVID-19 Outbreak
Is Your Business Ready to Work Off-site?
The looming threat of the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting us all, even shaping how business will be conducted. Knowledge and preparation is key to sustain your organization’s operations. Do you have a telecommuting plan to maintain business continuity?
How Do I Maintain Business Operations?
You may need to change your business practices and operations during the pandemic. Mobilizing your workforce to flex how they work by working from home or off-site, permits your business to continue to function, and to continue to collaborate with clients and your team.
Why Work from Home or Off-site?
- Reduces risk of being infected with COVID-19; social distancing
- Decreases the number of employee absenteeism due to illness
- Shrinks the chance of all employees being infected with COVID-19 at the same time
- Preparedness if your employees are quarantined due to COVID-19 exposure
- Allow employees the ability to work if they are caring for other family members or children who are ill, quarantined due to exposure, or are at home due to school closures
