PROBLEM

Injuries, related to excessive computer use

Nearly half of all carpal tunnel syndrome cases cause workers to miss 31 days or more of work time. Repetitive motion injuries cost employers an estimated $80 billion a year. CTS release operations and other nerve-compression injuries are associated with fail rates of over 50%. “Research in the US has shown that for every $1 invested

• environment there is a return of $17.8”

The most common repetitive stress injury is carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). CTS affects more than 8 million Americans.
