Ergonomic Notice
Now that you have your Micron computer, you will probably spend many
hours exploring the capabilities of this machine, and personalizing it for your
use. But the computer is only part of the larger picture of ergonomics.
Ergonomics is a science that addresses human performance and well-being in
relation to various types of jobs, tools, equipment and environment.
As you begin to personalize your working environment, it is important to
keep in mind your body’s needs to make your computer time more productive
with less physical and mental stress. And an effective work area will begin
from the ground up. Here are some suggestions:
•
Use an adjustable chair, and try different seated postures to find
what is most comfortable and produces the least fatigue. The
backrest should be adjustable to fit the small of your back.
•
Use an adjustable keyboard support. You want to keep your
wrists straight, your hands lower than your forearms and your
forearms parallel to the floor. Use a light touch on the keyboard.
•
Alternate mouse and keyboard use, and keep the mouse within
easy reach.
•
Place the monitor 18-30 inches from your eyes (arm’s length is
also a good distance). The top of the monitor should be level
with your eyes.
•
Take breaks from both the keyboard and looking at the monitor.
Performing simple exercises while at your work area will increase
your productivity. Shrug your shoulders...take a deep
breath...change your focus...massage your hands...stretch....let
your arms fall relaxed at your sides.
No two work areas will ever be the same. Find the combinations that work for
you, and keep in mind that proper work area planning will make your
computer time more effective, and less stressful on your body.
