Arranging your workspace
To get the most from your computer, arrange both the equipment you use and your work area to suit your
needs and the kind of work you do. Your comfort is of foremost importance, but light sources, air circulation,
and the location of electrical outlets can also affect the way you arrange your workspace.
Comfort
Although no single working position is ideal for everyone, here are a few guidelines to help you nd a
position that suits you best.
Sitting in the same position for a long time can cause fatigue. The backrest and seat of your chair should
adjust independently and provide good support. The seat should have a curved front to relieve pressure on
the thighs. Adjust the seat so that your thighs are parallel to the oor and your feet are either at on the
oor or on a footrest.
When using the keyboard, keep your forearms parallel to the oor and your wrists in a comfortable position.
Use a light touch on the keyboard and your hands and ngers relaxed. Change the angle of the keyboard
for maximum comfort by adjusting the position of the keyboard feet.
