This Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) cartoon, by CSEA graphic artist Ralph Distin, highlights the danger of unhealthy repetitive working conditions. After establishing its own Occupational Safety and Health Department, CSEA took on a leadership role fighting for worksite protections, including landmark VDT and ergonomics standards in the 1980s and 90s.
