Ergonomic information
Working in the virtual office might mean adapting to frequent changes in your environment. Following some
simple rules will make things easier and bring you the maximum benefits of your computer. Keeping in mind
such basics as good lighting and proper seating, for example, can help you improve your performance
and achieve greater comfort.

many of these tips. Develop good habits, and they will serve you well.
General posture : Make minor modifications in your working posture to deter the onset of discomfort
caused by long periods of working in the same position. Frequent short breaks from your work also help
to prevent minor discomfort associated with your working posture.
