Home Office Ergonomics: Beyond the Chair

Published: March 05, 2026

Your home office setup impacts more than just comfort!

1. Monitor height: Top of screen at eye level to prevent neck strain. Use books or a riser if needed.

2. Keyboard placement: Elbows at 90 degrees, wrists neutral. Avoid reaching.

3. Mouse proximity: Keep it close to the keyboard to minimize shoulder reach.

4. Lighting: Natural light is best. Avoid glare on your screen. Task lighting is key for focus.

5. Footrest: If your feet don't reach the floor, a footrest improves posture & circulation.
