To Choose an Ergonomic Location for your

Computer

Before you get started, find the best location for your new computer.

Planning your workspace

❑Stable work surface —Use a stable work surface large enough to support

the computer and other peripheral equipment.

❑Ve n t i l a t i o n —Leave at least eight inches of space on the left and back sides

of your computer to enable proper ventilation.

❑Placement of the keyboard, mouse, and other input devices —Place

your keyboard, mouse, and other input devices so that your arms and hands

are in a relaxed, comfortable position. The keyboard should be directly in

front of you. Adjust the level of the keyboard so that your lower arms are

parallel to the floor. Keep your wrists in a relaxed position when you are

using the keyboard—not angled up or down. Use the palmrest only briefly,

for resting. While typing, never use the palmrest or rest your hands on the

table. Position the mouse at the same level as the keyboard. Hold the mouse

with a relaxed hand, and use your whole arm to move it. Take breaks during

sessions with your computer. Excessive use of the mouse or a joystick may

strain muscles or tendons.

❑Furniture and posture —Sit in a chair with good back support and

armrests. Adjust the level of the chair so your feet are flat on the floor. A

footrest may make you more comfortable. Sit with relaxed, upright

posture—avoid slouching forward or leaning far backward.

❑Viewing angle of the display —Position the display 18 to 26 inches

directly in front of you, with the top of the screen at or a little below eye

level. Use the display’s tilting feature to find the best position. You can

reduce eye strain and muscle fatigue by placing the display in the proper

position.

❑Lighting —Choose a location where windows and lights do not create glare

and reflection on the display. Use indirect lighting to avoid bright spots on

the display. You can also purchase accessories for your display that help

reduce glare. Proper lighting adds to your comfort and work effectiveness.
