Setting up your work area
To minimize fatigue, organize your work area so you can work comfortably. Position your tablet, input tools,
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 tools.
•
Alternate tasks and tools
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.
