RSI is the second most common work related disease in the UK, with over 350,000 sufferers.
These 350,000 sufferers take a combined total of 10 million sick days per year. This costs UK businesses approximately 2 Billion pounds ($2 Billion AUD) per annum! This does not include the cost of personal injury claims.
Maltron keyboards have been shown to:
- Ease the pain and disability for sufferers of RSI.
- Enable return to work for RSI sufferers and those individuals with reduced or no function in one or both upper limbs.
- Reduce organisation’s costs for sick days from RSI.
- Maltron’s revolutionary hand positions remove static muscle strain and promote free blood flow.
- Natural and gentle hand and finger movements cause no stretching and start recovery from muscle fatigue, tendon inflammation and pain.
- This improves the well-being and productivity of users who will no longer need time off to ease pain.
- It also demonstrates duty of care, reducing personal injury claims.
