As computers are used for long periods of time, people can suffer from health problems. The most common ones are:
| Eye Strain |
If you spend too long looking at a monitor you can get eye strain, headaches and discomfort. Bad lighting and sitting too close can make the problem worse. |
| Back & Neck Problems |
If you sit still for a long time and slouch on the chair it could lead to back problems in later life. |
| Wrist Problems |
Typing for a long time without a break can lead to wrist problems. Repetitive Strain Injury is caused when the muscles in your hands and wrists become tired and start tingling. |
| Electrical Hazards |
Poorly maintained electrics or wiring could lead to an electric shock or a fire. |
