Ergonomic Notice
Now that you have your Micron computer, you will probably
spend many hours exploring the capabilities of this machine,
and personalizing it for your use. But the computer is only part
of the larger picture of ergonomics. Ergonomics is a science that
addresses human performance and well-being in relation to
various types of jobs, tools, equipment and environment.
As you begin to personalize your working environment, it is
important to keep in mind your body’s needs to make your
computer time more productive with less physical and mental
stress. And an effective work area will begin from the ground
up. Here are some suggestions:
• Use an adjustable chair, and try different seated
postures to find what is most comfortable and
produces the least fatigue. The backrest should
adjust to fit the small of your back.
• Use an adjustable keyboard support. You want to
keep your wrists straight, your hands lower than
your forearms and your forearms parallel to the
floor. Use a light touch on the keyboard.
• Alternate mouse and keyboard use, and keep the
mouse within easy reach.
• Place the notebook 18-30 inches from your eyes
(arm’s length is also a good distance). The top of
the LCD should be level with your eyes.
• Take breaks from both the keyboard and looking at
the LCD. Performing simple exercises while at your
work area will increase your productivity. Shrug
your shoulders...take a deep breath...change your
focus...massage your hands...stretch....let your arms
fall relaxed at your sides.
No two work areas will ever be the same. Find the combinations
that work for you, and keep in mind that proper work area
planning will make your computer time more effective, and less
stressful on your body.
