A day of bench work demands the employee as an official match demands a performance athlete

TVR 1 appearance, Matinal show from July 23, 2018

The guest of the 1 Matinal show, Daniel Milicescu, specialist in occupational security, draws attention to the fact that office work, where 6-7 hours a day means working in a chair, requires the employee in the same way as a performance athlete is required at a official match.

In the list of occupational diseases, we find musculoskeletal disorders that affect 38% of the employees. These conditions are activity-related disorders that affect the body's muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments, bones and nerves.

The man sits at the desk all day. It's like a performance athlete, 6-7 hours of chair work after which he eventually goes and does sports or goes home and eats. The performance athlete, after an official match, has a recovery session, then a recovery session, after which training starts again.

When we work in the office every day, we got up from the office, go home or do sports - which does not necessarily help us, after which we eat, not always monitored, in the sense of having a nutritional regime suitable for the work we do we do and go to bed. And tomorrow we have another official match. In the long term, on the one hand it affects my health from a postural perspective.

Usually at the office even if someone comes and tells us - ergonomic posture, straight back - after 30-45 minutes we relax and this relaxation over time, we get used to it so much that it becomes a condition, explained Daniel Milicescu
