Setting Up a Healthy Work Environment A-9
■ Position the monitor at a 90° angle to windows and other
light sources to minimize glare and reflections. Adjust
the monitor tilt so that ceiling lights do not reflect on
your screen.
■ If reflected light makes it hard for you to see your
screen, use an anti-glare filter.
■ Clean your screen regularly. Use a lint-free, non-
abrasive cloth and a non-alcohol, neutral, non-abrasive
cleaning solution or glass cleaner to minimize dust.
■ Adjust the monitor’s brightness and contrast controls to
enhance readability.
■ Use a document holder placed close to the screen.
■ Position whatever you are looking at most of the time
(the screen or reference material) directly in front of you
to minimize turning your head while you are typing.
■ Get regular eye check-ups.
