Tilt: Adjust the tilt of your monitor to optimize the appearance of the screen

content and to accommodate your preferred head and neck posture.

·

General location: Position your monitor to avoid glare or reflections on the

screen from overhead lighting or nearby windows.

The following are some other tips for comfortable viewing of your monitor:

·

Use adequate lighting for the type of work you are performing.

·

Use the monitor brightness, contrast, and image adjustment controls, if equipped,

to optimize the image on your screen to meet your visual preferences.

·

Keep your monitor screen clean so you can focus on the screen’s contents.

Any concentrated and sustained visual activity can be tiring for your eyes. Be sure to

periodically look away from your monitor screen and focus on a far object to allow

your eye muscles to relax. If you have questions on eye fatigue or visual discomfort,

consult a vision care specialist for advice.

Quick tips for healthy work habits

The following information is a summary of some important factors to consider to

help you remain comfortable and productive while you use your computer.

·

Good posture starts with equipment setup: The layout of your work area and

the setup of your computer equipment have a large effect on your posture while

using your computer. Be sure to optimize the position and orientation of your

equipment by following the tips outlined in “Arranging your work area” on page 2-1

so you can maintain a comfortable and productive posture. Also, be sure to use the

adjustment capabilities of your computer components and office furniture to best

suit your preferences now and as your preferences change over time.

·

Minor changes in posture can help avoid discomfort: The longer you sit and

work with your computer, the more important it is to observe your working

posture. Avoid assuming any one posture for an extended period of time.

Periodically make minor modifications in your posture to help deter any

discomforts that might arise. Make use of any adjustments that your office

furniture or equipment provide to accommodate changes in posture

·

Short, periodic breaks help ensure healthy computing: Because computing is

primarily a static activity, it is particularly important to take short breaks from

your work. Periodically, stand up from your work area, stretch, walk for a drink of

water, or otherwise take a short break from using your computer. A short break

from work gives your body a welcome change in posture and helps to ensure you

remain comfortable and productive while you do work.
