Ergonomic Benefits of Using a Cordless Phone Headset
Plain and simple, using a cordless phone headset reduces neck, upper back and shoulder stress by as much as 40% or more. Using a properly adjusted cordless phone headset will also increase worker productivity as well.
Cradling a traditional phone handset between your shoulder and ear to talk will result in discomfort.
Craning your neck during extended phone calls can lead to improper cervical alignment. This can result with reduced blood flow and accelerated muscle fatigue. Plantronics cordless phone headsets will help to eliminate this problem by freeing you to move and sit more naturally. Headsets are known to reduce the chances of work-related physical pains, specifically injuries of the neck and upper body, resulting in reduced workers' compensation claims.

| New user studies identify headsets as “pattern-breakers” |
Evidently, many office workers have “adapted” their motion patterns and work routines to the telephone handset and its apparent limitations - not vice versa - resulting in uncomfortable and harmful postures, that in the short-run inflict pain, typically in the head (headaches), neck, back and shoulders, and in the long-run potentially cause permanent damage to the tendons, tissue, muscles, nerves and supporting structures. Such negative patterns are not easily broken without some kind of physical intervention, where replacing the telephone handset with a headset provides the most obvious, effective and well documented improvement that can be obtained.
Proof it works!
A field study in Denmark and Germany equipped more than one hundred office workers in different office workplaces with the GN9120 wireless headset. The study showed that for new headset users with 2-4 hours daily phone use, physical comfort can improve drastically by replacing the telephone handset with a headset. 30% of the test group experienced a significant improvement in physical comfort directly related to pain in the neck or back during the test period of two working weeks.
