Arranging your work area

comfort�
Organize your 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 your monitor
Position and adjust your computer monitor for comfortable viewing by considering the following
items:
•
Viewing distance:
Recommemded viewing distance between the eye and the monitor screen is
1.5 x the diagonal of the screen. Solutions in meeting this required distance in cramped office
situations include pulling desk away from wall or divider to make room for monitor,using flat
panel or compact displays placing the monitor in the desk comer,or placing the keyboard in an
adjustable drawer to create a deeper working surface�
•
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 sturdy 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 state�
