               If you spend part or all of your day working at a desk and using display screens, this
               course is for you:

                    •  Office Workers                             •  Anyone desk-bound

               Overview


               The idea that working at desks, or using display screens, can be damaging to your
               health is now well established. But it’s not just desk-bound workers that are
               vulnerable. In today’s highly computerised age, employees in many fields now spend
               more time than ever before in front of screens.

               The big problem is the gradual nature of the damage caused. Just like you don’t
               notice the daily aging of your body, poor working conditions take a slow but serious
               toll on your body. This course will help you set up your workstation to minimise any
               potential damage to your health.
