This calculator provides general ergonomic starting points. It cannot diagnose or treat pain and does not guarantee prevention of strain or injury. Stop and change position if a setup causes numbness, weakness, increasing pain, or persistent discomfort. Seek advice from a qualified healthcare or ergonomics professional when symptoms persist, an injury affects work, or you need an accommodation tailored to your body and duties.
