Repetitive Stress Injury, Cause for Serious Concern
The warning comes after the government promised last week to end the sick-note culture.
Ministers said the sick note should be redesigned to allow GPs to spell out what tasks can be done rather than what cannot.
But they also said this had to be coupled by extra efforts from businesses to address health problems, including the establishing of work-based clinics to manage problems such as back pain.
Janet Asherson, the Confederation of British Industry's health and safety policy adviser, said it was important that businesses took the issue seriously, but added there was a lot of good work being done, reports BBC.
"Extensive legislation covers the use of computers and vibration caused by machines and equipment."
