Office Ergonomics Basics

Set up a comfortable desk

This guide explains chair and monitor heights, keyboard/mouse positioning, lighting, and micro-break habits to improve workstation comfort and reduce repetitive strain.

Chair and posture

Set chair height so feet are flat and knees near 90?; support lower back.

Monitor and input

Align monitor top near eye level at arm's length; keep keyboard/mouse close with neutral wrists.

Lighting and glare

Use indirect light, reduce screen glare, and adjust brightness to room lighting.

Move regularly

Take short breaks every 30-60 minutes; stretch wrists, neck, and shoulders.
