Keyboard: Set up your keyboard so it is flat to your work surface. Utilizing
a three-quarter inch support under the keyboard helps to accomplish a flat
surface. The mouse should be placed directly to the side of the keyboard to
prevent having to reach unnecessarily.
Chair: Adjust the height of your chair so that your feet are planted firmly on the
floor and your knees are bent at right angles.
Monitor: Position your computer screen directly in front of you (about two feet
away) so that the top of the screen is at or just below your line of vision.
Wrists: Wrists should be straight when typing, keeping forearms parallel to
the desk and elbows at right angles. Wrists should not be rested upon the
keyboard at any time during typing; instead, rest your wrists when you are not
typing. Stretching before and after typing may also help.
Breaks: Take brief breaks from typing throughout the day to give your wrists
a chance to “recharge.”

effective use of your
