Position Yourself
Whether you are working or playing, it is important to avoid awkward postures and
position your body comfortably. Not only can this improve your overall productivity,
it may help you avoid musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). Keep in mind that
changing your posture during extended tasks may also help you avoid discomfort
and fatigue.
When working or playing at the computer, adapt your surroundings and arrange
your computing equipment to promote a comfortable and relaxed body posture.
Setting up your workstation to avoid discomfort depends on your unique body size
and work environment. However, the following suggestions may help to provide you
with a more comfortable environment.
To support your back, try the following:
• Use a chair that supports your lower back
(see detail 1).
• Adjust your work surface and chair height
to assume a comfortable and natural body
posture (see detail 2)
To promote comfortable leg postures, try the
following:
• Clear away items from beneath your desk
to allow comfortable leg positioning and
movement.
• Use a footrest if your feet do not rest comfortably on the floor.
