oin me in addressing a global issue often overlooked: the importance of safe computer usage. With the recent surge in online computer related activities due to the pandemic, work-related musculoskeletal disorders have witnessed a steady increase. My mission is to empower 10 million individuals with the skills to work safely with computers, integrating ergonomics into daily lifestyle. In this talk, I'll impart five essential skills for safer computer workstation practices, ensuring prevention of important ailments like severe neck spasms, acute lower back pain, and repetitive trauma injuries.

As we delve into these skills, you'll not only safeguard your own well-being but also gain knowledge to educate others, fostering a culture of adopting an ergonomic lifestyle.
