Default Sit or Stand?

I’m a third year Industrial Engineering Student and over the summer I worked in a Manufacturing facility. One of the “rules” in the plant was that employees were not allowed to sit down on the job. I’ve just started an Ergonomics class at school and wondered if the no-sitting-rule is common practice in industry. If so, is it because productivity goes down when people are sitting; or is there some other reason?

Just curious…
