When I first started working in Occupational Health, little did I know that this is going to open such a Pandora's box. I tried to understand the various morbidities of the computer professionals, better known as Video Display Terminal Operators. Many of them are due to poor physical conditions they work in, known as bad ergonomics. This along with tedious working hours, repetition of work, and other harmful habits has cumulatively caused various types of problems among them.

This can be an invaluable resource for Video Display Terminal workers and Industries to help their workforce.
