Workplace Preparation

This section gives advice on
what you should consider

before you set up your monitor.

Height

Position the monitor so that the top of the screen is slightly below your eye
level when you sit at your workstation.

Orientation

Choose a position that gives the least reflection from lights and windows,
usually at a right angle to any windows. Position the monitor directly in front of
you so that you do not have to twist your body to use it. Tilt the monitor to a
comfortable viewing angle.

Adjusting the Monitor Position

Viewing Angle

You can tilt the screen backward and forward as shown below.

Working Practices

This section gives
advice on how you can

work comfortably and reduce
fatigue.

Rest

Take regular breaks. Vary your posture, stand up and stretch occasionally as
prolonged use of computer workstations can be tiring.
