Abstract
Work surface particularly designed for computer work or terminal operations is designed to prevent injuries of the neck, wrist and arms and excessive visual strain that commonly occur in computer and other terminal work by supporting the forearms of a person working at the computer or terminal at their entire length between the elbow and the wrist. The support to the forearms at their entire length is provided by a portion of the work surface being arranged to curve downwardly in such a way that the lowest point of the top surface of the work surface is close to the user and the highest to the keyboard and the mouse surface so that the user rests his/her arms on the work surface during work.
