HEALTH TIPS FOR WORKING IN OFFICE
1. Position the view parallel to the monitor screen. Try to keep the laptop or
computer screen parallel to the direction of view of the eyes and put a distance
of about 50-100 cm from the sitting position.

2. Sit upright using an ergonomic chair. An ergonomic chair is a chair that is able
to support the back well, should be adjustable and have a back support
according to the position of the table. Make sure to sit with your back straight and
shoulder position back.

3. Let the elbows relax and open forming the letter L. Make sure the arms form
the letter L and the elbows are next to the body.

4. Put the legs level and let them tread. Feet treading on the floor. Otherwise,
use a footrest or a small stool so that the feet do not hang.

5. Do not sit too long and stretch muscles regularly. It is recommended to take a
short break of about 10-15 minutes after using the computer for 2 hours to
reduce risks such as tired eyes, headaches, to neck and shoulder pain. Rest
means the eyes are also not used for reading.
