Safety and Health at Work
Source: Martin Braun
April 28, 2025, marked World Day for Safety and Health at Work – a global day of action that reminds millions of people every year of the importance of safe and healthy working conditions. This day was established by the International Labour Organization (ILO) and has become an important platform for awareness-raising, dialogue and political impetus. We at the IT Center would also like to use this day to draw attention to current developments, opportunities and challenges in the field of occupational health and safety – and also to focus on our own health promotion services.
Dynamic Sitting at Work

Dynamic sitting at work is an important tool that can help us promote our back health and prevent problems.
When sitting dynamically, we should make sure to constantly shift our weight and change our sitting position. Therefore, if we constantly adopt different sitting positions, we will improve our spinal support muscles on the one hand, and on the other hand, the movement will provide our intervertebral discs with nutrients. Thus, we have the opportunity to prevent unnecessary back pain. At the same time, we can avoid muscular imbalances that occur when muscles atrophy, weaken and ultimately shorten due to one-sided strain.
