•
Remember to occasionally shift position and move your body. Keeping
your body in one position for long periods is unnatural and stressful.
When prolonged work is required, take frequent short breaks. As a rule
of thumb, a five or ten minute break every hour is a good idea. Short
frequent breaks are more beneficial than longer less frequent breaks.
Data show that people who work for long periods of time without a
break may be more prone to ergonomic injury.

Changing tasks frequently will help prevent muscle stiffness. Examples:
alternating between keyboarding, reading, writing, filing, and moving
around in your work environment, helps you maintain a relaxed
posture. Occasionally stretch the muscles in your hands, arms,
shoulders, neck and back. You should stretch at least as often as you
take brief task breaks—at least once every hour.
•
Discomfort may be alleviated by using alternative ergonomic designs
and accessories such as ergonomically personalized chairs, palm rests,
keyboard trays, alternative input devices, prescription eyeglasses, anti-
glare screens, and more. Seek additional information from the sources
available to you, including your employer, doctor, local office supply
store, and the
