OFFICE SAFETY

While there are still several thousand conventional office accidents every year, such as slips and falls, there are also the new and growing problems of the modern office. Clare Ruhemann looks at reports of ill-health among staff working in sealed buildings, and D. S. Cox homes in on the specific problem of fluorescent lighting. Keyboard operator injuries are also investigated.
