It's not just the most physically demanding jobs that can lead to serious injuries. Working with a seemingly harmless mouse and keyboard can cause chronic injuries just as easily as hauling a load of cement. In fact, repetitive strain injuries such as carpal tunnel affect hundreds of thousands of American workers a year, and lead to tens of billions of dollars annually in workers comp claims, according to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
不是只有从事体力劳动的工作才会对身体造成严重的伤害。和看似无害的键盘鼠标亲密接触也能轻易的造成和拉一车水泥一样的慢性伤害。事实上,根据美国职业安全与卫生监管部门的统计,重复性压迫损伤造成的腕管疾病每年都困扰着成百上千的美国人,每年都会造成数百亿美元的经济损失。
Nelson Liu, a certified acupuncturist in Los Angeles, sees many of these disorders in his patients.

HotJobs.

There are ways to break the vicious circle, and they don't necessarily require the most expensive office chair or expert intervention, according to Tony Biafore, an ergonomics expert president of Ergonetics. "A lot of companies think they can solve ergonomics problems with a one-size-fits-all approach, or by buying the most expensive keyboards or office chairs," Biafore says. "Fancy ergonomic equipment is worthless if you don't identify how you're using them."
工作学专家Tony Biafore也是Ergonetics公司的总裁,他说要打破这个恶性循环还是有办法的,而且并不需要昂贵的办公椅或者专家介入。他说,“很多公司以为他们可以一劳永逸的解决工作学的问题,要么就买最贵的键盘或者办公椅。如果你不清楚要怎样使用的话,新奇的工作学设备是一文不值的。”
