Dutch term or phrase: groter werkplekbereik

Context: (handleiding voor) onderzoek (interview) naar zit-sta-producten en de besluitvorming (voor aanschaf) daarover.
Zin is: "We gaan ook in op het beslissingsproces voor zit-sta-producten en producten voor een groter werkplekbereik, zoals ergonomische producten."

Hoe moet ik dit zien, groter werkplekbereik?

Ik zie maar 3 keer werkplekbereik op google:
400 Lux in het werkplekbereik en een nalooptijd van vijf minuten voor de verlichting
Werkplekbereik: 910 mm x 625 mm
Standaard uitvoering horizontale uitblaas Luchtdebiet: Werkplekbereik:

Ik heb de indruk dat de tekst hier en daar wat moeizaam ('duur') geschreven is en het kan best zijn dat het als volgt gelezen moet worden: we gaan het hebben over het beslissingsprocess voor zs-producten en andere producten voor de werkplek, zoals ergonomische producten.

Of zie ik dat te simpel (het is nogal een vertaalslag)? Of creëren de bedoelde producten een betere werkplek of efficiënter gebruik van ruimte? Andere ideeëen?

Iedereen de beste wensen voor 2017!

Definition - What does Working Reach Envelope mean?

The working reach envelope, with regards to ergonomics, is that area in which a human can comfortably reach an object. The working reach envelope includes only that space that a worker can reach while maintaining minimal deviation from a neutral arm position. This space is considered when planning the ergonomics of a workspace in order to help reduce work related musculoskeletal disorders.

• Loading on the muscles of the wrist is increased when the reach distance to the keyboard, mouse, or other devices on the desk causes awkward or static postures of the wrist.
Working Heights
• Loading on the muscles of the wrist increases when the keyboard is at the incorrect height. Having the keyboard in positions too low or too high for the worker can place the wrist in an awkward posture, putting additional stress on the tendons and other tissues of the wrist."
