Computers have helped us make out tasks easier, gather information faster, and linked us together. They have also brought about some hazards. Ergonomic hazards such as carpal tunnel have made their way to headlines as well as bottom lines. The effects of working with computers can also take their toll with complaints such as sore shoulders and headaches.

There are methods to avoid or diminish the risks of hazards associated with computer workstations. This could mean a simple adjustment to the workstation, including adding a footrest or placing a filtering screen on the monitor. Such an adjustment or addition can go a long way in keeping employees from suffering from the effects of a poorly designed workstation. Computer workstation ergonomics is the process of fitting a computer workstation to the user. It helps reduce muscle fatigue, increase productivity, and lessen the number and severity of work-related injuries to the muscles, nerves, blood vessels, ligaments, and tendons.
