A primary concern for those working remotely is the development of chronic back pain resulting from prolonged sedentary behaviour. This is typically caused by a combination of poor ergonomics and inefficient configurations, which often lead to reduced productivity and physical ailments such as migraines, cramping and eye strain. Here are some suggestions for ergonomic improvements: • Seating : Investing in an adjustable chair or utilizing lumbar cushions. OPTIMIZING YOUR WORKSPACE

• External keyboard and mouse : Keeps your hands and wrists in a neutral position. • Monitor placement : Elevating your screen to eye level reduces neck strain. • Modify computer settings : Adjusting your monitor’s brightness, font size and contrast.
