It’s difficult to think that anyone could really suffer a serious injury working in an office environment. I mean it’s not like a building site or even a factory shop floor yet a high number of office workers suffer injury<\/a> that can keep them out of employment for months on end. One of the most common injuries suffered by office workers is repetitive strain injury estimated to cost British businesses around \u00a3300million a year in lost working hours.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)<\/strong> is the overuse of certain activities on an almost daily basis and can also be caused by poor office equipment such as faulty chairs, keyboards or computer screens. Stress is also a factor in RSI, where office workers under pressure, often experience greater pain around the muscles or joints that are greatly effected by similar everyday tasks.<\/p>\n

If you feel that you may be suffering from RSI then please get a proper medical check for the condition. In some cases you may be eligible to make a compensation claim against your employer<\/strong> for Repetitive Strain Injury, if you have made them aware of the pain you were suffering due to poor office equipment and they choose to ignore your claims and instructed you to carry-on with your work.<\/p>\n

Give us a call on 0800 634 7575<\/strong> and speak to a proper injury lawyer \/ solicitor about making a compensation claim for your injury.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
