Adjustable height desk.
A good chair that is the proper height and adjustable.
Adjustable height monitor supports.
Ergonomics is all about geometry. Most of the problems people try to fix w8th wrist supports or ergonomic keyboards are really problems with sitting too high or too low in comparison to the keyboard and/or monitors.
The ability to raise and lower the chair, the desk, and the monitors independently will make a world of difference.
I might also add that some people forget about the “repetitive” in Repetitive Stress Injury. Adjustable is your friend because it allows you to find a really good posture, and also because it allows you to accommodate multiple postures through a day or month or whatever.
A good chair for sure. I think this is the most valuable thing you can ask for.
my chair once broke, so being in i.t. i got to put in a ticket that “my i.t. support has broken”
Next time it’s the back-end /s

Standing desks are for people who have never worked a physical job. Did you know that you can just stand up from a normal desk at any time? Now imagine a job where you can’t sit down.
Exercise your choice and stand up when you want to. Sit down when you want to. Don’t do one thing all day long.

Ehhh, I say just get more actual exercise. What does standing all day do for you?

Right, and these people want to stand at their desk. So having a standing desk lets them exercise their desires
A chair. Standing desks are good and all, but you won’t want to stand every single day.
I think the point with standing desks is really you just want one that can convert to either be a standing or a sitting desk. And you switch it up from time to time.
It’s odd the people that advocate for standing only all day. Standing in one spot all day is straight up painful unless you’ve got a nice standing mat. Even then it can suck. Walking all day is different and won’t hurt as much. Long periods of immobility in any position aren’t exactly great for you, whether you’re sitting or standing. Not having the option to sit is also terrible.
A combo of standing and sitting is best, not one or the other.
Sit-down to Stand-up desk!
You mean a sit-stand desk. There pretty neat. If you can get the whole proper desk. Not just the risers that sit on a normal desk. There prone to cutting csbles, monitors falling and just take up space.
All the obvious ones have been mentioned already, so I’ll just add:
-
Keyboard tray if your desk doesn’t have one. It allows you to achieve the 90 degree arm position without having to set your desk too low or your chair too high.
-
Wrist pad. A nice gel pad provides great support for your wrist. Just make sure your keyboard and mouse are at the appropriate heights, because if not, a wrist pad can make it worse.
-
Head rest add-on to your chair if it doesn’t have one.
-
Laptop stand to lift your laptop screen to eye level. It also helps to keep it aligned to an external monitor so they are the same heights.
-
One thing that is often over looked is proper monitor height. You can’t have good posture if your monitor is too low.
Yes, especially with a standing desk. When standing, you’ll need the monitors much higher off the desk than when you’re sitting.
And you won’t need the chair!
A steering wheel that doesn’t come off while you’re driving.
I also suggest a front that won’t fall off
I could go for a T300 for my workstation
Does anything hurt? Are you having any issues?
Address those first.
Split keyboard is nice https://gaming.kinesis-ergo.com/product/freestyle-edge/
Pinch mouse is nice https://kinesis-ergo.com/shop/dxt-mouse-3/
Think about any time you feel uncomfortable, strained, numb, jabbed by something etc. Whatever items are causing those sensations.
A split keyboard and a good chair improved my desk comfort more than anything else I’ve tried.

Hermin Miller Embody Chair, it will change your life.
I will need about 15 years worth of home office allowance to be able to afford one of those. That doesn’t even include shipping and taxes.
