OFFICE MEMO Tech Writing vs. Ergonomics Date: 8/28/98
Dear fellow writers,
I am developing a business case to improve the missing ergonomic aspects in our writing group.
Is your office (computer/keyboard/mouse/chair positions, space) ergonomically friendly?
Did you have to receive medical treatment such as physiotherapy before the situation got corrected?
I am planning site visits as well, preferably in the Montreal, Qc or Ottawa, Ont area so we could meet and discuss how the ergonomic issue got solved in your office arrangement.
