1)Ensure that the retractable legs on your keyboard are pulled back, allowing the keyboard to lay flat.
2)Use a keyboard with a wrist rest - these can also be purchased separately - these wrist rests really do work and greatly decrease fatigue and strain.
3)Your mouse should fit comfortably and naturally in your hand without any need to move any of your fingers to reach a button.
4)Ensure that the contacts inside your mouse are clean to allow for smooth use
5)Keyboards and mice should be regularly disinfected as they are a breeding ground for all sorts of bacteria.
6)Using the seating guidelines above, your keyboard should be the correct distance from you.
Tips
1)Your feet should not be dangling, but flat on the floor. If this is not possible, a footrest is recommended. Your knees should be slightly higher than your hips.
2)A chair with lumbar support is the optimum arrangement, if this is not available, back cushions can be obtained - even a rolled up towel can offer some support.
3)Your back should be firmly supported by the back rest.
4)Adjust the seat so that you can fit 3 fingers between the front of your seat and the back of your legs
5)When extending your arms to the keyboard, your wrists should be parallel with your elbow, this minimizes strain on the muscles of your arm.
6)The top of your monitor should be level with your eyes, or just slightly below eye level. The monitor should be approximately 50 - 70cm (19" - 27") from your eyes.
7)Rest your wrists and hands when you are not typing, don't keep them in a typing position while reviewing work etc.
8)Use document holders where possible. These should be placed at the same height beside the monitor and the same distance away as the monitor.
