Seating and Posture
Correct posture and computer placement
When using the computer, sit comfortably. Proper seating is a primary factor in reducing
strain.
❖
Position your chair so that the keyboard is at or slightly below the level of your elbow.
You should be able to type comfortably with your shoulders relaxed.
❖
Position your knees should be slightly higher than your hips. If necessary, use a
footrest to raise the level of your knees and ease the pressure on the back of your
thighs.
❖
Adjust the back of your chair so that it supports the lower curve of your spine. If
necessary, use a cushion to provide extra back support.
❖
Sit with your back straight so that your knees, hips and elbows form approximately
90-degree angles when you work. Do not slump forward or lean back too far.
Using Your Arms and Wrists
Regular attention to your work habits can make your time at the computer more
productive.
❖
Keep your wrists straight while typing. If necessary, adjust the keyboard and chair
height to keep wrists straight.
❖
Avoid resting on your wrists while typing.

Use a light touch on the keys and mouse.

circulation.
