Setting up your work space Placement of computer Position the computer and peripheral devices to provide comfort and safety. ❑ Set the computer on a flat surface at a comfortable height and distance. The display should be no higher than eye level to avoid eye strain. ❑ Place the computer so that it is directly in front of you when you work and make sure you have adequate space to easily operate other devices. ❑ Allow adequate space behind the computer to let you freely adjust the dis- play. The display should be angled to reduce glare and maximize visibility. ❑ If you use a paper holder, set it at about the same height and distance as the computer. Seating and posture The height of your chair in relation to the computer and keyboard as well as the support it gives your body are primary factors in reducing work strain. Refer to the following tips and to figure 3-1. BELOW EYE LEVEL GETTING STARTED FOOT REST 90° ANGLES Figure 3-1 Posture and positioning of the computer ❑ Place your chair so that the keyboard is at or slightly below the level of your elbow. You should be able to type comfortably with your shoulders relaxed. ❑ Your knees should be slightly higher than your hips. If necessary, use a foot rest to raise the level of your knees to ease pressure on the back of your thighs. ❑ Adjust the back of your chair so it supports the lower curve of your spine. 3-3
