1. A worksurface assembly comprising:
- a support structure;
a horizontally extending utility trough;
a worksurface member movably connected to the support structure for horizontal frontward and rearward movement between a forward extended position and a rearward retracted position relative to the support structure, and wherein the worksurface member substantially prevents access to the utility trough when in the retracted position, and permits access to the utility trough when the worksurface member is in the extended position, the worksurface member defining an enlarged upwardly-facing upper surface, a front edge, and a rear edge that is opposite the front edge;
an elongated accessory rail connected to the support structure, the accessory rail extending along the rear edge of the worksurface member when the worksurface member is in the rearward retracted position, wherein the accessory rail is configured to releasably support accessory units positioned generally adjacent the rear edge of the worksurface member.
