Bloodshot eyes, hunched shoulders and puffy legs: this could be the office worker of the future.

Office product manufacturer Fellowes Brands has created 'Emma', a life-sized doll that could be what office workers look like in 20 years time. 

Her physique is based on the findings of a survey of 3000 office workers from France, Germany and the UK.

Fellowes Brands says that Emma should serve as a warning to office workers and managers alike to do something to improve workplace conditions.
