Adjustable work stations should be provided so that individuals may change the stations to meet their needs. A VDT workstation without an adjustable keyboard height and without an adjustable height and distance of the screen is not suitable for continuous work. Use a soft touch on the keyboard and keep your shoulders, hands, and fingers relaxed. Use a document holder, positioned at about the same plane and distance as the display screen. Rest your eyes by occasionally looking off into the distance.
Office Lighting Different tasks require different levels of lighting.
Areas in which intricate work is performed, for example, require greater illumination than warehouses. Lighting needs vary form time to time and person to person as well. One approach is to use adjustable task lighting that can provide needed illumination without increasing general lighting. Task lamps are very effective to supplement the general office light levels for those who require or prefer additional light. Some task lamps permit several light levels.
