Ergonomics
From Nasqueron Agora
When contributing to an open-source project, like other computing activities, the main risks are:
- muscle and skeleton impact
- mental health impact
- eyes impact
Workstation ergonomics
The first important point is the workstation ergonomics. You need to sit in a correct position, with correct placement of what surrounds you.
The NIH Office of Research Services maintains for their own use a comprehensive checklist of the points to check.
INRS also maintain such a risks list in French, with nice illustrations.
