Understanding Ergonomics

Here are some tips for setting up a healthy work environment.

Keyboard and Trackpad

When you use the keyboard and trackpad, your shoulders should be relaxed.

Your upper arm and forearm should form an angle that is slightly greater than a right

angle, with your wrist and hand in roughly a straight line.

Use a light touch when typing or using the trackpad and keep your hands and fingers

relaxed. Avoid rolling your thumbs under your palms.
