Use them or lose them!

If you still have funds in your FSA, time is running out to use them or they go back to your employer. Most people don’t know that ergonomic office chairs may be eligible for FSA funds. If you must sit for hours at a time every day, you may be suffering from various aches and pains that are impacting your work performance.
