More people than ever are working into their later years, and increasing numbers are working from home, including setting up businesses and remote working.

Too frequently, many of us are left to set up home offices or workstations with little guidance or understanding of how to work healthily, especially as we get older. Design Age Institute commissioned this work to explore the principles of working well from home in a new guide on designing better workstations.
