Setting up your work area
To minimize fatigue, organize your work area so you can work comfortably. Position your tablet, pen, and keyboard
so they are easily accessible without unnecessary reaching. Your monitor should be positioned so you can view it
comfortably with a minimum of eyestrain. For best results, orient the tablet so the screen cursor follows the same
direction as your hand movements on the tablet.

Here are some other points to keep in mind:
•
Take short breaks between tasks to
stretch and relax your muscles.
•
Use a gentle grip when working with your
pen.
•
Alternate tasks throughout the day.
•
Maintain a good posture at all times.
Minimize awkward postures and repetitive
movements that cause discomfort.
•
Change your position if you feel any
discomfort due to your work position.
