Safety & Comfort Guide 1–3
Promoting a Safe and Comfortable Work Environment
Key Principles
To promote safety and comfort, follow these principles whenever
you use your computer.
ADJUST
◆ Adjust your body position and your work
equipment.
◆ There is no one “right” position. Find your
comfort zone, as described in this Guide,
and when working at your computer,
frequently adjust within this zone.
MOVE
◆ Vary your tasks so that you can move
around; avoid sitting in one posture all day.
◆ Perform tasks that require walking.
RELAX
◆ Build positive relationships at work and
home. Relax and strive to reduce sources of
stress.
◆ Stay aware of physical tension such as
clenching your muscles and shrugging your
shoulders. Continually release tension.
◆ Take frequent, short breaks.
