What is sedentary work restrictions?

Sedentary work restrictions refer to the limitations placed on individuals who work in jobs that require sitting for long periods of time. Sedentary work restrictions may be recommended by doctors or occupational therapists for individuals with certain medical conditions or injuries. The restrictions may include limitations on the amount of time spent sitting, the type of chair used, and the frequency and duration of breaks to stand, stretch, or walk. Sedentary work restrictions may also require modifications to the workstation, including ergonomically designed furniture and equipment to reduce discomfort and pain. Employers are responsible for accommodating these restrictions for their employees to ensure their health and well-being.
