Specifies ergonomic requirements for chairs (excluding lounge chairs) or stools of fixed height and either fixed or swivel bases, in order to provide purchasing authorities, specifiers, users, retailers and manufacturers with a uniform set of performance requirements that can form the basis of selection and evaluation criteria.

This Standard sets out the dimensional requirements for chairs (excluding lounge chairs) or stools of fixed height with either fixed or swivel bases, intended to seat one person in an upright position such as when sitting at a desk or table. The requirements for adjustable height chairs and plastic monobloc chairs are not covered by this Standard.
