Computer health and safety

To be safe in the environment of computer working you need to make sure that you take regular breaks from your work on the computer because you will strain your eyes another way of stopping your eyes from being strained is to make sure that the screen brightness and contrast levels are correct  for the environment of the room, say that it is a brightly lit room make sure that the brightness and contrast are similar to the lighting in that room. Also make sure that the seat is the right height for your eyes to be level with the centre of the screen otherwise if your looking up for too long you might get a stiff neck and have a stretch before you commence work so your legs and arms don't seize up and also become stiff during your work. If there are more than 7 people in the room you are working in, according to new EU regulations you have to wear a High Viz vest so you can be clearly visible in the working environment. (last one obviously not true but the way health and safety is going it won't be long until it is!!)
