Ergonomic information
Working in the virtual office may 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.
What if you are traveling?
It may not be possible to observe the best ergonomic practices when you are
using your computer while on the move or in a casual setting. Regardless of
the setting, try to observe as many of the tips as possible. Sitting properly
and using adequate lighting, for example, will help you maintain desirable
levels of comfort and performance.
Note:
This example shows someone in a conventional setting. Even if you work
in a casual, less conventional setting, many of the tips in this section still
apply. Develop good habits, and they will serve you well.
