Tempted to leave work early to catch the last of the day’s sun and maybe finish off tasks on a laptop at home? It could leave with you with painful shoulders, or aches in the neck, arms or wrists.
“People should be aware that working on a laptop can cause them to hunch their shoulders and lean forward because of the screen and keyboard size”.
When you are in office you can adjust the chair height as well as the height of the desktop screen, but the laptop screen and keyboard are one unit. So while they are convenient they are not designed for everyday use.
Top Tip:
Get a monitor stand so that the laptop screen can be used at eye level, and buy a separate full-size keyboard, mouse and wrist rest to reduce wrist strain.
