Overview:

The costs associated with repetitive strain injury (RSI) to businesses are very high; the federal Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) estimates them to be between $15 billion and $20 billion per year in the United States.

For computer users, this includes using an appropriate pointing device and keyboard, such as the variety of ergonomically designed mice and keyboards offered by Microsoft Corp. Properly designed ergonomic input devices have been shown to reduce computer-related pain and demonstrate a significant effect on the incidence of RSIs for primary prevention.
