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 in front of your computer, the more important it is to
observe your working posture. Avoid as summing 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 in front of 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.
Eye Strain
● Break Times
Computer users should take some time away from the screen especially if working for
prolong hours. Generally, it is recommended to take short breaks (5 – 15 min.) after
1 –2 hours of continuous computer works. Taking short and frequent breaks is more
advised than longer breaks.

Users often blink less when in front of monitor screen. To minimize eye strain and
dryness, users should rest the eye periodically by focusing on objects that are far away.
● Eye Exercises
