There are more and more jobs where workers are mentally and physically overburdened. Time spent at work is increasing so it’s important that the workplace and work process itself don’t have a negative impact on the human body. According to some theories, office work is one of the least physically demanding jobs but in the recent years the health issues in this type of work have been on the rise. This is the perspective I wanted to look from and also explore different causes for various health issues while also proposing a few measures to prevent them.
In the introduction I described the office work and the upper body limbs that are affected by it. Next, I focused on various causes for different kinds of pain. In the body part of my thesis I researched different exercises that should alleviate or even eliminate the pain. Towards the end I wrote about different approaches that office workers could benefit from. By keeping various measures in place, exercising dutifully and ensuring a better working environment the workers could face less health problems and be more productive.
