If you have a computer at home, you can do your own assessment.

Look at these questions and answer either 'yes' or 'no' for each one.
Count up your 'yes' answers and see how you scored.

• Do you have a tiltable screen?
• Do you have an anti-glare screen filter?
• Do you have an adjustable chair?
• Do you have a foot support?
• Do you have suitable lighting?
• Do you have room to move at your workstation?
• Do you take regular breaks?

Your score:
If you answered 'Yes' to 0 - 2 questions, you really should think hard about whether any aches and pains you have are being caused by your computer.
If you answered 'Yes' to 3-5 questions, you're probably looking after yourself, but you should keep thinking how you might improve your workstation.
If you answered 'Yes' to 6 or 7 questions - Well Done!
