| Abstract |
Observations in an office where visual display terminals are used for airline reservations indicate the importance of both correct posture and suitable equipment design, with special emphasis on the need of appropriate height of desks for the terminal and adjustable chairs. Complaints of visual problems resulted from lack of treatment or correction of devices. When these problems were corrected, complaints of such nature were reduced to the level considered normal in general offices. |
