The Maine Video Display Terminal (VDT) Law gives certain rights to people who use computers for work.

If you work at a computer for more than 4 hours in a row on most days, your employer must:
1. Train you to use your computer safely so you won’t get hurt. Using your computer safely includes:
- Not hitting the keys too hard,
- Not keying too fast or for too long, and
- Not sitting in one position or in an uncomfortable position.
2. Train you the right way to adjust your workstation.
3. Train you within the first month after you are hired and then once a year.

If you have questions about working safely at the computer, speak to your supervisor or contact the Bureau of Labor Standards

Employers must place this poster in the workplace where workers can easily see it.
