Employee Factsheet: Display Screen Equipment

Rotate work activities where possible. Try to spend around five minutes in each hour carrying out work activities away from the computer.

Take regular screen breaks.

Remove anything from under your workstation that causes you to twist when sitting.

Arrange pieces of equipment that you use frequently, eg the telephone, so that you do not stretch to reach them.

Use a document holder if you frequently refer to paper documents at the same time as working on your screen, eg when entering data.
