Overview of ergonomics

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. A lot of stuff
  2. Sitting so that the: Angle formed by the shoulders, hips, & knees is >90° Angle formed by the shoulders, elbows, & wrist is >90° Angle formed by the hips, knees, & feet is >90°
  3. Wrists at a neutral position, level with forearm (<15° deviation) Chair armrests not directly compressing any part of the forearms or elbows Move a mouse with your forearm & not just wrist
  4. Muscles get stiff if you sit in the same position too long Eyes get tired Too much typing can = wrist and hand discomfort Eye Breaks Micro-breaks Rest breaks Ergonomic software Exercise breaks
