Office worker ergonomics

摘要

Musculoskeletal disorders accounted for one-third of all injury or illness cases in the United States in 2011, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data. Among office clerks, receptionists and administrative support workers, 4,050 MSD cases-including carpal tunnel syndrome and injuries to the neck, shoulder and back-required a median range of 11 to 16 days away from work to recover.
