RSI and Productivity

Did you know:

• RSI (repetitive stress injuries) cost American businesses more than $20 BILLION each year.
  
  
• The average workers compensation claim is $8,000 more than double the average claim. The median length an employee is out of work due to RSI is 30 days.

• "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure".

By using Stress Away Software, you can help reduce RSI. Frequent mini-breaks (30 seconds) can actually increase productivity by lowering discomfort, pain or fatigue.

According to OSHA's Web Site

RSIs are one of the fastest growing workplace injuries, costing employers more than $20 billion for 2.73 million workers' compensation claims in 1993. Indirect costs may run as high as $100 billion. Workers who experience RSIs may be unable to perform their jobs or even simple household tasks.
