Getting Started
Selecting a place to work
Placement of the computer
Proper placement of the computer and external devices is
important to avoid stress-related injuries.
Place the computer on a flat surface at a comfortable


height and distance. You should be able to type without
twisting your torso or neck, and look at the screen
without slouching.
If you are using an external monitor, the top of the


display should be no higher than eye level.
If you use a paper holder, set it at about the same height


and distance as the screen.
Seating and posture
When using your computer, maintain good posture with
your body relaxed and your weight distributed evenly.
Proper seating is a primary factor in reducing work strain.
Some people find a backless chair more comfortable than a
conventional chair.
