Posted By Tony abc jprhdnMurphy No the ergonomics should dictate that the tables are fit for purpose and suitably located or positioned. The height should reflect the use and need and be compatible with the person. A compatibility check, one month after install, will ensure you are acting within the spirit of the legislation.
