I&#x27;ve seen ergonomic&#x2F;repetitive stress issues like carpal-tunnel syndrome affect many co-workers, from having to wear special braces, undergoing surgery, to even forcing one co-worker into retirement.<p>I&#x27;ve also noticed that some employers place more importance on ergonomics in the workplace than others - for instance, most required doctors notes for special equipment, like ergonomic keyboards and mice. Others offered services like an ergonomic study of your workspace, ergonomics training and  simple desk height adjustments (in a cubicle) as normal fare; still others didn&#x27;t even have height-adjustable desks and seemed fairly unaware of ergonomics.<p>What&#x27;s your workplace like, and is ergonomics something you consider or place importance on?
Ask HN: Does your employer consider ergonomic workstations important?
