DSE Workstation

The numbered issues are as follows:

1. Adjustable height and angle to seat back.

2. Good lumbar support.

3. Adjustable seat height to bring the hands to a comfortable position on the keyboard. Seat also has a stable five–star base.

4. Correct seat – height adjustment and keeping the feet supported prevents excess pressure on underside of thighs and backs of knees.

5. Foot support if user cannot get their feet on the floor.

6. Space for postural change, no obstacles under desk; this allows the user to fidget and change position as they work.

7. Forearms approximately horizontal when hands are on keyboard.

8. Minimal extension, flexion or deviation of wrists; wrists should be straight and flat when on the keyboard, indicating proper seat-height adjustment.

9. Screen height and tilt should be adjustable to allow comfortable head position.

10. Space in front of keyboard to support hands/wrists during pauses in keying; a wrist-rest can provide further support, if required.
