Safety and Comfort 14-1 Chapter 14 Safety and Comfort a WARNING: There may be a risk of serious physical injuries from working at your computer workstation. Read and follow the recommendations in this section to minimize the risk of injury and to increase your comfort.
1 4-2 Safety and Comfort Promoting a Safe and Comfortable Work Environment Posture, lighting, furniture, work organization, and other work conditions and habits may affect the way you feel and how well you work.
Safety and Comfort 14-3 Key Principles To promote safety and comfort, follow these principles whenever you use your computer. Adjust Adjust your body position and your work equipment. There is no one “right” position. Find your comfort zone, as described in this Section, and when working at your computer, frequently adjust within this zone.
1 4-4 Safety and Comfort Remember Remember to exercise regularly and maintain general fitness. Doing this will help your body withstand the rigors of sedentary work. Respect any medical conditions you may have or other health factors you may know of. Adjust your work habits accordingly.
Safety and Comfort 14-5 Different Tasks, Different Postures Your choice of posture within your comfort zone may vary with your task. For example, you may find a reclined posture most comfortable for computer tasks, and a more upright posture more comfortable for tasks requiring frequent reference to papers or books.
1 4-6 Safety and Comfort Feet, Knees, and Legs Make sure your feet can rest solidly and comfortably on the floor while sitting. Use an adjustable work surface and chair that allow your feet to rest firmly on the floor, or use a footrest.
Safety and Comfort 14-7 Back Use your chair to fully support your body. Distribute your weight evenly and use the entire seat and backrest to support your body. If your chair has adjustable low back support, match the contours of the chair’s backrest to the natural curve of your lower spine.
1 4-8 Safety and Comfort Forearms, Wrists, and Hands Keep your forearms, wrists, and hands aligned in a straight, neutral position, whether you are working at a desk or table, or sitting on a couch or bed. Avoid bending or angling your wrists while typing or using a pointing device.
Safety and Comfort 14-9 WRONG! Don’t angle your wrists; this may cause unnecessary strain. * Split Keyboards HINT : If you find it difficult to type with a straight, neutral wrist position, you may want to try a split keyboard. Be aware, however, that improper setup or posture while using a split keyboard can increase bending in your wrists.
1 4-10 Safety and Comfort Eyes Working at your computer for long periods can be a visually demanding task and may cause your eyes to become irritated and fatigued. Therefore, you should give special attention to vision care, including the following recommendations: Resting Your Eyes Give your eyes frequent breaks.
Safety and Comfort 14-11 Arranging Your Work Area You may find a range of monitor heights that allows your head to be balanced comfortably over your shoulders. Monitor You will reduce eye strain and muscle fatigue in your neck, shoulders, and upper back by properly positioning your monitor and adjusting its angle.
1 4-12 Safety and Comfort Tilting the Monitor Tilt the monitor so that it faces your eyes. In general, the monitor screen and your face should be parallel to each other. To check for correct monitor tilt, have someone hold a small mirror in the center of the viewing area.
Safety and Comfort 14-13 Eliminating Glare and Reflections on Your Monitor Take the time to eliminate glare and reflections. To control daylight, use blinds, shades, or drapes, or try other glare-reducing measures. Use indirect or reduced lighting to avoid bright spots on your display screen.
1 4-14 Safety and Comfort Adjusting the Keyboard Height and Slope Your elbow height should be near the height of your keyboard’s home row (see illustration under “Shoulders and Elbows”). Adjust your keyboard slope so that your wrists are straight.
Safety and Comfort 14-15 Arm Supports and a Palm Rest You may find that supports for your forearms or hands allow you to be more relaxed and comfortable.
1 4-16 Safety and Comfort Papers and Books Select a work surface or surfaces that are large enough to hold the computer equipment and any additional items required for your work. To help minimize eye fatigue, position any materials to which you frequently refer at about the same viewing distance.
Safety and Comfort 14-17 Phone Cradling your phone between your ear and shoulder may lead to neck, shoulder, and back discomfort. If you use your phone a lot, try using a headset or positioning your phone so you pick it up with your non-dominant hand.
1 4-18 Safety and Comfort Working in Comfort Using a Notebook Computer Maintaining a high level of comfort when using a notebook computer may be more challenging than when using a desktop computer. Therefore, you should be especially alert to your body’s signals, such as any feeling of discomfort.
Safety and Comfort 14-19 Being Inventive Use pillows, blankets, towels, and books to: • Raise the height of your seat. • Create a footrest, if needed. • Support your back. • Raise your computer to elevate the keyboard and display. • Provide arm supports, if you are working on a couch or bed.
1 4-20 Safety and Comfort RIGHT! Relax your thumbs and fingers while typing and pointing; notice and release excess tension. WRONG! Don’t type or point with unnecessary tension in your thumbs and fingers. * Keep it Light If your typing is on the heavy side, teach yourself to lighten up.
Safety and Comfort 14-21 Pointing Style Use your whole arm and shoulder to move the mouse, not just your wrist. Don’t rest or anchor your wrist while using your pointing device; keep your wrist, arm, and shoulder free to move. Adjusting Software Controls You can use the software control panel to adjust the properties of your pointing device.
