Background

Commercial quality ergonomic tools, for knowledge workers, have only been available to organizations since 1996.  Two main areas of studies have been pursued.  These represent two of the four key value propositions for organizations (add liability and regulatory drivers) driving the development and growth of the marketplace:

• The need for reducing direct and indirect costs of employee injuries and claims for computer-related Injuries.

• The need for productivity improvements in office environments

Scientific research has shown that taking brief micro-breaks – lasting a minute or two and strategically placed during the day – can substantially reduce employee risk of developing injuries as well as increasing the accuracy of people using computers.
