How to position yourself correctly in front of your screen?

In the digital age, where many hours are spent in front of screens, the importance of ergonomics at work cannot be overstated. An often overlooked but essential aspect of ergonomics is the proper adjustment of the height and distance of the screen. In this article, we will dive into the intricacies of the right positions to adopt and the tangible benefits they provide, with a particular focus on the use of the Ergobox, the new ideal companion of the 2.0 worker!

1. The right positions for a well-adjusted screen

a. Eye level

When sitting at your workstation, make sure the top of the screen is aligned with your eye level. This optimal position reduces eye strain by avoiding the constant need to look up or down.

b. Optimal distance

Maintain a distance of about an arm's length between your eyes and the screen. This ideal distance minimizes visual strain and helps improve focus, especially during extended sessions.

c. Alignment with the body

Position your screen so that it is aligned with the center of your body. This encourages a natural posture, limiting unnecessary twisting of the neck and spine. This harmony in alignment reduces physical stress, promoting overall well-being.

2. The benefits of adjusting your screen correctly

a. Reduction of eye fatigue

Properly adjusting the screen position contributes significantly to reducing eye fatigue. By keeping the screen at eye level, you reduce eye strain resulting from an uncomfortable position, thus improving visual comfort.

b. Improved posture

Adopting correct posture helps maintain a neutral spine. This prevents back pain, neck pain, and muscle tension often associated with poor posture. Investing in optimal posture is an investment in long-term health.

c. Increased concentration

An ergonomic posture is not only beneficial for physical health, but it also promotes better concentration at work. By minimizing distractions related to physical discomfort, you can focus more on the tasks at hand, improving overall efficiency.
