Adjusting Your Chair - back rest Next Slide
The back rest should support the small of your back to maintain the natural inward curve of your spine. Back rests can be adjusted for height and moved forwards and backwards to obtain the ideal position. Good Workplace and Job Design will eliminate the following hazards Upper Limb and Pain Discomfort Fatigue and Stress Effects upon Your Eyesight Next Slide
Examples of Adjusting Your back rest This is the correct posture to maintain whilst at your workstation Next Slide
Adjusting Your Chair - Armrests If your chair is equipped with armrests, they must be adjusted so that they properly support your forearms Check your armrests now. Make sure they do not interfere with your free movement or stop you from moving close enough to your desk. Make sure the height is adjusted so that there is no shrugging or hunching of the shoulders. Your arms should rest comfortably at your sides. Next Slide
Adjusting Your Chair - Seat Height It is very important to set the seat to the correct height. If it is too high or too low, your whole posture will be wrong Make sure that your legs have enough space between the seat and the desk. As you have seen, when your chair is at the correct height, your forearms and wrists will be horizontal. Make sure that the design or adjustment of your chair does not cause excess pressure on the underside of your thighs or insides of your knees. Next Slide
As you have seen, when your chair is at the correct height, your forearms and wrists will be horizontal. If you find that in this position your feet are not flat on the floor you may be able to adjust the height of the desk. If not, you will need to support your feet. There should be a small gap between the front of your chair and the back of your knees. Make sure that your legs have enough space between the seat and the desk. There should be a small gap between the front of your chair and the back of your knees. Next Slide
Desk Positioning Next Slide
It is important that your desk area is set up correctly. This may include adjusting the position, angle or even the height of the desk. Note: You must not move or adjust the desk yourself. Next Slide
Desk Positioning Your desk should be set-up to prevent glare or other light sources from falling upon your monitor The height of the monitor should be adjusted to cut down on eyes and neck movements Bright lights behind your monitor can have a similar effect, causing glare and making the screen difficult to read. Glare from windows or other light sources can normally be shielded by using blinds. Next Slide
Your Monitor Your monitor (display screen) should be fully adjustable in position, swivel and tilt. Position your monitor at an arm's length, tilting upwards a little (yet minimising the effects of glare from overhead lights). Computer screens attract a lot of dirt, dust and fingerprints, so make sure you clean yours regularly – otherwise it will be difficult to read. A soft, dry cloth may be used to remove dust. Heavier deposits may be removed using special cleaning fluids or wipes (check suitability before using). Next Slide
Correct Distance between User & Monitor This is the correct example the distance between monitor and user should be at least ½ a metre Next Slide
Your keyboard Correct positioning of your keyboard and mouse helps you avoid the aches and pains associated with bent wrists. First, check the keyboard to see if it has adjustable `feet'. Experiment to see whether having them in the up or down position is most comfortable. Now check the position of the mouse and keyboard on the desk. They should both be far enough back so that during pauses you can rest your forearms on the desk. Remember, if your chair is at the correct height for the desk, your forearms and wrists will be horizontal. Next Slide
Which picture shows the ideal position for your arms, wrists while typing? You have 10 seconds to make your choice Did you choose the correct picture Next Slide
Your Mouse When using a mouse, make sure that it is positioned within easy reach - so that you don't have to stretch to use it. Rest your forearm on the desk and hold the mouse lightly. Press the buttons gently. As you move the mouse, try not to flex your wrist from side to side. Instead move your entire forearm so that your wrist always remains straight. Your mouse should be cleaned regularly, especially any moving parts such as the ball and rollers. Make sure that it moves smoothly at all times – otherwise you will tend to use more pressure to control it. Next Slide
Configuring Your Mouse Your computer operating system can be configured to adjust the speed/ sensitivity of the mouse pointer and double-clicking speed. It is worth checking these settings if you have problems using the mouse. Next Slide
Working with Documents If you are typing from written documents, try to position them close to the screen. A copy holder should be used if available. Keep it at the same distance as the screen, so that your eyes don't have to keep refocusing. Next Slide
Health Issues Most health problems which are linked to workstation use can be grouped into three main areas: Upper limb pains and musculoskeletal problems of the back and neck. Eye and sight symptoms. Fatigue and stress Next Slide
Upper limb, back and neck pains Take these actions to minimize upper body discomfort: Remind yourself to adopt a good posture at all times. Try to find a Comfortable position with your shoulders relaxed and your lower back supported and Avoid twisting or reaching while seated. If necessary, re-locate frequently used items such as papers or files and 'Rotate' your tasks so that you mix working at your computer with other activities. Every hour or so, spend 5 or 10 minutes away from your workstation. Find an activity which does not require mental or visual concentration such as filing. Next Slide
Upper limb, back and neck pains When using a mouse, pause frequently. Take your hand off the mouse and let your arm hang straight down for a few moments. Next Slide
