Fellowes, leading supplier of workspace solutions, are launching an initiative to encourage both employees and companies to regularly assess workstations, as part of a month long campaign to help prevent work-related injuries like RSI. The “Ergonomix” campaign takes place during March 2008 following International RSI Day which will be held on 28th February 2007.
Workstation assessments are a legal requirement and have been proven to help employers by reducing the number of working days lost through RSI related injuries and creating a productive work environment.
