If companies a legal obligation to provide proper ergonomics for employees?
I am a web programmer, and I've been getting pains in the wrist after a long spell of writing. I think this could be corrected by me either with an ergonomic keyboard or wrist rest some type. If I asked my boss to give me more proper ergonomics, are legally required to like it was just supposed to avoid any other incident causing pain employees a Companys? (As the chemicals need gloves, construction workers need hard hats)
Ergonomics has been a debate over years, OSHA wants in the CFR, but the industries have successfully fought, OSHA has guidelines but for now there is no strict regulations regarding ergonomics
