Introduction
The home office has become a daily workplace for many. Here's how to make it comfortable and productive.
Ergonomic chair
Invest in a good office chair that supports your back and is adjustable. A bad chair can cause back and neck pain. The chair should allow you to keep your feet on the floor and your thighs horizontal.
Correct table height
Elbows should be at a 90-degree angle. The height-adjustable table allows you to alternate between sitting and standing, which is healthier.
Monitor position
The top edge of the screen should be at eye level, about an arm's length away. Avoid window light directly on the screen or behind you - it causes glare.
Lighting
Desk lamp with directional light - avoid reflections on the screen. Natural light is best, but must be adjustable with curtains.
Storage
Shelves, drawers, filing cabinets - keep the work surface clean and tidy. Everything you need should be within reach, but not in the way.
Personality
Add plants, pictures, artworks that inspire and create a pleasant atmosphere. A home office should be a place where you feel good.
