Doctors advice:
When working with a computer, have short breaks at regular intervals
in order to combat stress and prevent chronic pain!
Using computers for too long without breaks has been associated with
backaches, neck ache, headaches, migraines, eye strain and eye discomfort,
tendon injuries (RSI), circulatory trouble, trouble in breathing, intestine
and stomach diseases, ...
Just ask yourself, do you take enough care over your health during
work without being given regular reminders?
The illnesses caused by computer work are not only painful but also very
expensive, causing the loss of billions worldwide: lost income, time off,
lost production as efficiency is affected, welfare costs, treatments,
benefits to victims unable to work, insurance and the cost of coping with
absence ... Because of this many countries have developed directives that
prescribe the taking of regular breaks while working with a computer ...
fit@work makes it easy to follow such directives!

problems himself. Inspired by physicians, he started the development of
