Chair

Listen to a discussion in a business class. The computerized workplace can be hazardous to your health if you don't take preventative measures. Today we'll go over what some of these hazards are and more importantly, what can be done about them. One major complaint, maybe the biggest complaint, of people who spend time at the computer is eye strain. To help ease the strain on the eyes, the computer screen should be about two feet from your eyes. The entire screen should be in focus. The brightness and contrast should be adjusted for best readability. A good way to relieve eye strain is to look away from the screen frequently. Focus your eyes on objects that are far away, like something outside, the building across the street or the tree in the parking lot. But what if your office doesn't have a window I mean I've worked in lots of places where there's no window. Then in that case you need to get up and walk around. You should never sit for more than 30 minutes at a time anyway. This is important for the rest of your body as well, namely your back. Neck and back pain are a big problem for computer people. Always make sure your screen, keyboard and chair are at the right height for you.
