How much time are your employees likely to take off this year due to RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury)? Read on to find out...Your most dedicated employees are most at risk of developing RSI — employees who will ignore minor aches and pains, skip breaks, and wait until injuries are so severe that medical intervention may be required. You may have considered in the past using software to remind computer users to take regular short breaks — the most common advice given for RSI prevention and recovery — but been put off by programs which interrupt the user in mid-thought or mid-keystroke, or expect the user to indulge in a public display of aerobics at thirty minute intervals. What is needed is a gentle reminder that won't get in the way of normal work, a reminder that adapts well to each employee's unique work patterns, and won't embarrass its users. Which is why we wrote Albion StopNow, a low-cost discreet reminder that provides a simple but effective reminder if you work too long without any break. The sort of reminder you can live with. It won't prevent anyone from completing a phone enquiry or finishing a short task, but it will gently and firmly remind them when they need to take a rest break. Research suggests that as much as 70% of lost work days can be due to repetitive strain injury. As many as 10% of all sick notes may be written for RSI. Do the sums. For just a few bucks per employee you can implement one of the most widely recommended RSI prevention measures available.
So: For just a few dollars per employee you can reduce the risk of RSI. [ Albion StopNow Product Details | RSI: An Employer's perspective ] © Albion Research Ltd. 2008 |
