Make sure that your workspace is set up properly...
Your keyboard and monitor should be directly in front of you with your mouse or trackball next to it. Place your mouse or trackball within easy reach so that your elbow can remain next to your side when using them.
DO
· DO adjust the height of your chair and table as to have the keyboard, mouse, or trackball at or below elbow height. · DO use the adjustment mechanism on the keyboard, if necessary to obtain the proper keyboard height. · DO remember, if you use a mouse pad, take its thickness into consideration when making the height adjustments. · DO have your feet well supported and your shoulders relaxed. DO place materials on your desk according to their frequency of use: · Frequent - Put materials you use the most closest to you. · Occasional - Put materials that you use occasionally no farther than an arm's length away. · Infrequent - Put your infrequently used materials further away, but consider convenience. DO place documents you need while typing close to the monitor to reduce frequent head turning and change of eye focus. You can use a document holder to help.
