Possible health effects of working with VDUs

Abstract

A summary of the effects presented here is given in a table. The designation 'factor present' implies that there is knowledge (from human or animal studies, or both) of a specific factor(s) present in VDU work which may be part of a causal link. The designation 'summary statement' gives my conclusions of the relation between VDU work and the various effects; the 'state of the art'. Suggestions for 'additional' health effects have also appeared but so far generally without supporting or suggesting evidence.
