At Europa Group, we spend our days in front of our screens. Keeping our eyes healthy and adopting the right body posture is essential! A poorly-adjusted workstation can lead to musculoskeletal disorders: neck, back, shoulder and wrist pain, and even unpleasant sensations such as pins and needles or cramps.
So how can we take care of our eyes and our bodies at the office?
1- Eyes:
- Detach yourself from the screen every 20 minutes, looking into the distance for 20 seconds.
- Blink regularly to keep your eyes hydrated.
- Consult an ophthalmologist in the event of visual defects.
2- Posture:
- Adjust the height of your screen: the top should be at eye level.
- Make sure your eyes are an arm's length away from the screen to avoid strain.
- Prevent musculoskeletal disorders by regularly adjusting your posture.
3- Muscles:
- Stretch regularly: push your joined hands upwards, palms facing the ceiling, gently tilt your head to one side then the other.
- Relax your wrists: shake hands, rotate.
- Stand up, walk, move!
It's up to you! Every minute invested in your well-being today will have long-term benefits!
