14-20 Safety and Comfort
Keep it Light
If your typing is on the heavy side, teach yourself to lighten up. Press the keys more
gently.

"Hunt-and-Peck" Typing
Non-touch-typing causes the neck to bend forward repeatedly. To minimize this
repetitive movement, learn how to touch-type so you don't need to look down at the
keyboard as often.
AVOID!
Avoid banging on the keys. Don't use more force than needed to press the keys.
RIGHT!
Relax your thumbs and fingers while typing
and pointing; notice and release excess tension.
WRONG!
Don't type or point with unnecessary tension in
your thumbs and fingers.
