Ergonomics At Work

Ergonomics is having a healty work station or a work place set up. We care about ergonomics, because of computer injuries and alot of money is being spent on comp. The best position for your chair is having a slight slouch in it and your feet should be rested on the flour. The best position for your keyboard is what they call a Negative Slope or just having your keyboard at desk level. Also your wrist should be straight. The best position for your mouse is having it right next to your keyboard. The best position for your monitor is having it as far away from you as possible, but close enough for you to read what's on it. Lighting is important because it causes eye and back strains and headaches. We need to include movement and our activity in our overall ergonomics, because you need to move so when you stay still for a long time you will not get any strains.
