Health and Safety
Health and safety is a component of digital citizenship. Using computers can create health and safety issues including physical discomfort, visual discomfort, stress and fatigue. Use of appropriate equipment, user education and a healthy dose of common sense will address most computer health issues.
In this section, we provide a few resource links for you to review your knowledge and practices in avoiding health and safety issues when using computers.
- Computer health and safety, from TechDonut, a website dedicated to helping businesses succeed.
