Ultimate Guide to Create an Ergonomic Workspace at Home

Ruth Gibson September 8, 2021 No Comments

Due to the epidemic, many of us are now working from home, a location that many of us have never used as a workstation. As a result, this room has never been ergonomically or technologically configured to our best advantage.

In most offices, health and safety procedures are in place, as well as specific office equipment, to keep employees safe and injury-free. When working from home or at a home office, how do we do it for ourselves? When putting together an ergonomic workspace for yourself, keep the following factors in mind.

  • Your workstation
  • Laptops and monitors
  • The ideal back-supporting chair
  • Keyboards

Your workstation

Your desk should fit your legs properly underneath it, with enough room for your knees to move freely. It’s also crucial to maintain the area beneath your desk free of debris so that your legs aren’t forced into stressful or unpleasant postures, or ones that restrict movement.

Laptops and monitors

If you have more than one monitor, make sure they’re all in the same place for the best ergonomic comfort. Bring modifications to make both screens eye level if you have two differing screen levels, such as a laptop and a monitor. To aid with this, you can use risers to raise the height of your laptop.

Keep the screen you’ll be using the most in front of you, and the second screen as close as feasible to the side of the main device. To avoid eye strain and injury, keep the screen at least an arm’s length away from you.

The ideal back-supporting chair

When setting up an ergonomic workstation, it’s very crucial to have a comfy chair with back support. Failure to maintain proper posture for lengthy periods of time might result in long-term harm to your back and neck.

When you choose a chair with castors, you may move around freely without having to lift and bend every time you need to move. Buying a chair that can be lowered is a fantastic alternative because your feet should be allowed to rest flat on the floor. To ensure that the chair follows the curves in your spine and maintains your posture when working for long periods of time, additional lumbar support can be added to the chair’s base.

Keyboards

Your keyboard and mouse should be in front of you, with your wrists and hands in a neutral position. While working, try to maintain them both as straight as possible. For the best ergonomic setup, your mouse should be on the same surface as your keyboard, and your hands should be somewhat below your elbows.

Bonus suggestion

Even if you’ve set up your office to be ergonomically sound, sitting for long amounts of time is still an unnatural posture to be in. A good rule of thumb is to move at least once every hour. Stretching at your desk and during your breaks can assist to reduce the risk of injury and strain.
