- The table/bench on which a computer is placed must be strong and wide enough to bear the weight and accommodate all the peripheral devices.
- The seat for the user must be comfortable, and have a straight backrest that allows someone to sit upright. This prevents muscle pains & backaches caused by poor sitting posture.
- Adjust the furniture to meet your needs for comfort.
For example;
Adjust the height of the chair or working surface so that your forearms are parallel with the floor
and your wrists are straight.
The seat must be high enough relative to the table to enable the user use the hands on the keyboard
comfortably.
The eyes must be at the same level with the top of the screen when the user is seated upright.
- You should be able to maintain your proper arm position and place your feet firmly flat on the floor.
- Adopt a relaxed, upright working posture. Avoid slouching (bending) forward or leaning far backwards.
- The Chairs should have low back support & footrest and should also be adjustable.
