The setup of your work environment is intrinsically linked to your posture. If you have a bad setup, you will have bad posture. For instance, if your computer screen is too far away from you, you may hunch forward to read the screen. If your screen is too high, too low, or off center, you will need to bend your neck in an awkward position. The good news is that you can avoid many pitfalls and problems by setting up your workstation properly.
When setting up your workstation, the goal is to allow your body parts to remain in a neutral position. The neutral position for a particular body part is the correct ergonomic position that reduces stress and fatigue on your muscles and joints. For most body parts, it is very obvious how to achieve the neutral position.
Set up your workstation so that your body parts can be positioned neutrally.
