Abstract
The growing population of video display terminal (VDT) operators in today's computerized workplace has led to an increased incidence of common office health problems. The most common of these problems include visual, musculoskeletal, and stress related complaints. The well informed occupational health nurse understands that it is the nature of the work and work environment, not the VDT, which presents health risks to operators. Therefore, the problems can be greatly prevented through proper work station ergonomics and well designed jobs. Education regarding the significance of these issues becomes a key form of intervention. This effort must be directed toward management as well as VDT operators.
