Keyboard Usage Tips
Some studies suggest that long periods of repetitive motion,
improper workstation set-up, or incorrect body position may
be linked to serious injury. If you experience any discomfort in
your hands, wrists, arms, neck or back (such as pain, numb-
ness, weakness), consult a qualified health professional.
To reduce the risks of such injuries, follow these precautions:
Take breaks frequently. Experts suggest taking at least
one 5-10 minute break every hour.
Avoid prolonged, repetitive tasks. Vary your tasks
throughout the day.
Assess your workstation and position frequently used
items closest to you.
Maintain proper shoulder, elbow and wrist alignment.
Shoulders should be relaxed with elbows at your side and
wrists should be kept straight.
Avoid using wrist or palm rests while typing.
