Do you think your workspace feels like an ill-fitting coat? Or does it feel like you’re wearing size 8 shoes when your size is actually 7? Yes? Then we have to tackle this health issue (yes, it’s a critical health concern).

This is the reason many employees acquire work-related health conditions that could have been easily avoided if they have been well informed about how to turn their workplaces more ideal.

That is how meticulous you should be regarding your work area. More details in the infographic produced by Business Insider. (Please check the graphic above).
