SETTING UP YOUR WORK AREA

To minimize fatigue, organize your work area so you can work comfortably. Position your tablet, input tools, and keyboard for easy access without unnecessary reaching. Position your display so you can view it comfortably with a minimum of eyestrain. For best results, orient the tablet so the screen cursor follows the same direction as your hand movements on the tablet.

• Take short breaks between tasks to stretch and relax your muscles.

• Use a gentle grip when working with your tools.

• Alternate tasks and tools throughout the day.

• Maintain a good posture at all times. Minimize awkward postures and repetitive movements that cause discomfort.

• Change your position if you feel any discomfort due to your work position.
