Chair

Problem

Tips

Corrective Action

Conversation position - learn about a good seated position when not at the keyboard.

 

Assessment

  • Used during conversations, meetings. reading, etc.  (non keyboard activities)

  • Promotes decreased loading of the spine - the semi-reclined position transfers body weight to the chair.

  • Semi-reclined position (about 1150/1150/1150 elbows. hips and knees) with feet supported on the floor or an elevated bolster.

  • Arms supported by the chair armrests

I am able to adjust my chair and workstation  - no action needed.
