Working with computers  When you are at a computer for a long period of time you will need to move around/away from the computer every 20 mins so you don’t strain your eyes for being at the computer for a few hours at one time.  Make sure you don’t make you legs go numb, if you do you might fall over when you stand up from sitting down for a long time.

3. Risk Assessment  Risk assessments are good because then if they are any risk with the computer, then you know not to use it before you have fixed the problem.  Make sure non of your equipment is hanging over the side of the table you are working on or if you do it might catch someone when they work past you.
