Preparing Your Work Environment
What can I do to avoid RSI?
Some people who use computers may experience physical discomfort during their
use. This discomfort may be a symptom of a repetitive strain injury. Properly setting
up and using computing equipment can help to minimize your chances of
experiencing this discomfort. Well-designed and properly adjusted equipment alone
may not be sufficient to eliminate all potential problems. Maintaining good posture
and positioning when working on computers also has a significant bearing on your
comfort.
What if I experience discomfort?
If you are experiencing any discomfort, seek professional medical advice immediately.
Typically, the earlier a problem is diagnosed and treated, the easier it is to resolve.
Preparing Your Work Environment
When using HP computing equipment, it is important that your work environment
contribute to your comfort and productivity.
Your Chair
It's very important that your chair provides a comfortable sitting position and offers
the following features:
• A stable base, such as five legs with casters. Make sure the casters are
designed for the type of floor you have in your workspace, whether it is bare or
carpeted.
• A height- and tilt-adjustment feature. It should be easy to adjust your chair
height from 40 cm to 52 cm (15.5 inches to 20.5 inches) as measured from the top
of the seat pan to the floor. If you are much taller or shorter than average, you may
need a chair that can be adjusted beyond this range. Adjust your chair so that the
work surface or keyboard tray is at elbow height and your feet are flat on the floor
