It is a
fact that repeat use of computer keyboard and mouse is
the main cause of Repetitive Stress Injuries (or
Repetitive Strain Injuries).
What can a workplace do
to make computer tasks more comfortable and productive
for workers? In addition to education on good work
habits, investing in ergonomic keyboards and pointing devices
that can help improve both short-term and long-term
comfort as well as productivity is the best investment. If moving to voice
recognition software totally is not yet possible for any
reason, and you can not eliminate keyboard and mouse in
the workplace,
then replacing cheap keyboard and mouse with high
quality ergonomic keyboard and mouse replacement device
will reduce keyboard relate problem, and improve office
productivity.

Ordinary
keyboard wrist supports are flat on top to support your hands flat
on the keyboards. Your forearms are twisted out of their neutral
positions in the same way a forearm is
twisted
when holding an ordinary mouse. Also, only small areas of the hands
contact the wrist support, which causes uncomfortable pressure
points. The
Evoluent PostureRight Wrist Support
solves the problem with a contoured surface which reduces forearm
twisting and increases the contact areas for greater comfort. |

Think about the amount of typing you
do in the course of a normal day at the computer. You might start
the day by answering several e-mail messages, then move on to
letters you need to write, followed by the report your boss wants in
three days. That can
add up to an awful lot of time spent on typing. Things get worse if you need to juggle reference materials
and make formatting changes. Using speech-recognition software, you
can do most, if not all, of these typing tasks by dictation.
Dragon Naturally Speaking Professional is the oldest,
the most reliable voice
recognition software you can turn to. It is available in several
versions to fit your requirement.

Keyboard trays play an
essential part of any ergonomically - optimized workstation. Some
higher-end models include an integrated mouse tray - a good feature
to look for. Other trays only allow the keyboard to be angled
downwards (negative slope) - these are recommended for they improve
wrist posture. Some keyboard trays allow the keyboard to be angled
upwards or downwards (positive or negative slope) - these are only
recommended if users are taught to angle the keyboard tray slightly
downwards. In addition, there are lap-held keyboard trays, which may
be helpful for people whose short desk depth would otherwise force
their monitor to be positioned too close. Since these trays aren't
attached to a desk, users can vary their distance from their
workstation to help maintain the proper ergonomic viewing distance.
