Trial registration: Clinical trials NCT03733288.
Conflicts of Interest: C.E. holds a grant from NIHR testing the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a sitting reduction intervention, delivered with and without a height-adjustable workstation for reducing sitting time in office workers (Award 16/41/04).
Ethical Considerations & Disclosure(s); Ethical approval granted by Liverpool John Moores University (18/SPS/001).
Clinical significance: A multicomponent intervention with and without a height-adjustable workstation largely appears acceptable for organizational stakeholders. Estimates indicate the interventions have potential to reduce sitting time at work though further studies with sufficiently powered samples and consideration of the impact of high attrition rates within the contact center setting are needed.
