Arrangement of Work MaterialsWhen it comes to arranging work materials, it's useful to consider an airline pilot's cockpit as an ideal model. The pilot sits in his seat with the most important item, the view of the outside world, as the main focus. The essential instruments and controls are also directly in front of the pilot, arranged around the windows within easy reach. Headphones and microphones are provided to transmit and receive verbal information. Auxiliary gauges and dials are arranged around and beside the more essential instruments. Ideally, all the vital instruments are almost at his or her fingertips. Less essential controls are strategically placed according to importance and frequency of use. The pilot does not have to twist or bend out of the seat to operate the aircraft.Visualize this perspective in your personal workspace. The items you use most often should be placed within easy view or access, so you will not have to excessively twist or bend your body while using these items. Excessive reaching takes time and in the sitting position can strain your body, especially if its is more in one direction than the other. You should arrange the materials at your workspace in their order of priority to help reduce repetitious or prolonged one-sided movements. In short, the nature of your tasks should determine the arrangement of the instruments, tools and materials at your workspace.
