Monitor Placement
When positioning the monitor it is important that the monitor’s brightness should match the room brightness. After adjusting the brightness, set the contrast to a comfortable level. Usually, the higher the contrast the better. Remember: lighting and vision are inter-dependent. Workplace lighting and visual ability both play a significant role in work posture.
Ideally the monitor should be placed a minimum of 50-70 cm away from eye
level. It the monitor is psoitioned further away, the screen text should
be enlarged. Also, use of monitors with a diagoional screen size >
19" will require that the monitor be positioned at a greater distance.
