Tips for your health and safety
Using a computer extensively may affect different parts of your body. Here are tips you should follow while working on a computer to minimize strain on your body.
Keep proper posture
The basic body position for using a computer is sitting straight with your hands on the keyboard parallel with the floor, and your eyes directed slightly downward toward the monitor. With the proper posture described above, no unnecessary strain is applied on any part of your body, in other words when your muscles are most relaxed.
Working on the computer with bad posture such as hunching over or being too close to the monitor could cause fatigue or deteriorated eyesight.
Adjust the angle of your display
Most display units are designed for adjustment of the horizontal and vertical angles. This adjustment is important to prevent the screen from reflecting bright lights and to make the display contents easy to see. Working without adjusting the display to a comfortable angle makes it difficult for you to maintain a proper posture and you will get tired easily. Adjust the viewing angle before use.
Adjust the brightness and contrast of the display
Display screens have functions to control brightness and contrast. The most suitable brightness/contrast depends on age, individuals, and environment, so adjust it to suit your preferences. A too bright or too dark display is bad for your eyes.
Adjust the angle of keyboard
Some keyboards are ergonomically designed, which allow the angle to be adjusted. Adjusting the angle of the keyboard is effective to reduce tension on your shoulders, arms, and fingers.
Clean your equipment
Keeping your equipment clean is important not only for the appearance but also for functional and safety reasons. A dusty monitor makes it difficult to see the display contents, so clean it regularly.
Take rest breaks
When you feel tired, take a break. Light exercise is also recommended.
