Arranging your work area

to work in comfort.

Organize you work area to match the way you use materials and equipment.
Keep your work area clean and clear for the materials that you typically use and
place the items that you use most frequently, such as the computer mouse or
telephone, within the easiest reach.

Equipment layout and setup play a large role in your working posture. The
following topics describe how to optimize equipment setup to achieve and
maintain good working posture.

Positioning and viewing your monitor

Position and adjust your computer monitor for comfortable viewing by considering
the following items:

Viewing distance:

Optimal viewing distances for monitors range from

approximately 510mm to 760mm (20 in to 30 in) and can vary depending on
ambient light and time of day. You can achieve different viewing distances by
repositioning your monitor or by modifying your posture or chair position. Use
a viewing distance that is most comfortable for you.

Monitor height:

Position the monitor so your head and neck are in a

comfortable and neutral (vertical, or upright) position. If your monitor does not
have height adjustments, you might have to place books or other study objects
under the base of the monitor to achieve the desired height. A general guideline
is to position the monitor such that the top of the screen is at or slightly below
your eye-height when you are comfortably seated. However, be sure to optimize
your monitor height so the line of site between your eyes and the center the
monitor suits your preferences for visual distance and comfortable viewing
when your eye muscles are in a relaxed stated.

Tilt :

Adjust the tilt of your monitor to optimize the appearance of the screen

content and to accommodate your preferred head and neck posture.

General location:

Position your monitor to avoid glare or reflections on the

screen from overhead lighting or nearby windows.
