• Work Surface Height. Your work surface should be height adjustable.
To ensure that your work surface is at the correct height, first adjust
the height of your chair so that your feet are firmly on the floor or on
an angled foot rest, then adjust the work surface height until your
forearms are parallel to the floor when you have your fingers on the
keyboard or other input devices.
