What Is Ergonomic Work Setup And Why Is It Helpful?

‍

Ergonomic work setup refers to the arrangement of your work environment to minimize stress and strain on your body. This includes things like the position of your chair, desk, and computer, as well as the layout of your workspace. 

When you have an ergonomic work setup, it can help to reduce the risk of injuries and discomfort, especially if you're working remotely or doing a lot of video conferencing.

By taking the time to set up your work environment in an ergonomic way, you'll be able to work more comfortably and efficiently.

Tips On How To Achieve An Ergonomic Remote Work Set Up

‍

These 4 tips are from Alan Hedge, a professor at Cornell University. Before considering these tips, Hedge said that you need to ask yourself first what kind of work you have and what equipment you need for your work.

1. Fix your head and neck position

Your posture dictates how you’ll gonna be comfortable and productive all day long while working. To prevent injury to your neck, shoulders, and back, it's important to keep your head in a vertical position relative to your neck. This will reduce strain on these areas.

‍

2. Modify your workspace

When you are working, it's important to pay attention to the position of your hands and wrists. They should be in a neutral posture. Make sure you can use any input devices, such as a keyboard and mouse, with your hands in a neutral posture as much as possible. 

You may need to adjust the height of your table or chair or move your keyboard and mouse closer or farther away from you to achieve this.

3. Have an office chair that rocks back and orthopedic seats

Having a chair that allows rocking can help you maintain good posture while you work. Experiment with different positions to find one that allows you to see your screen while also providing support for your lower back. If you don't have a chair that rocks, try placing a cushion, pillow, or towel behind your lower back to provide some support.

‍

4. Schedule short breaks often

It is recommended to take a short break every 20 minutes where you stand up, stretch, or even better, walk and make a cup of tea or coffee. This will improve your circulation, comfort, and performance, and decrease the risk of injuries.
