EXCERPTS FROM THE HEALTH AND SAFETY RISK ASSESSMENT 
 
The danger of prolonged screen work for production staff: Web design and graphics work in a marketing agency today requires daily use of the computer, as it is necessary to use various software programs: image retouching, video editing, web editing, etc. This daily use of the computer results in prolonged exposure to screens, which represents a source of short-term physical risk. This daily use of the computer results in prolonged exposure to screens, which represents a source of short-term physical risks. Long-term physical risks have yet to be demonstrated. The risks associated with computer work depend on a number of factors: distance from the screen, brightness of the screen and of the workroom, type of screen used (LCD, OLED, cathode-ray, etc.). If you don't take a break to rest your eyes during the working day, staring into the distance increases the risk of visual fatigue, discomfort and loss of concentration. The main possible risks associated with prolonged computer screen use in the short term are fatigue, irritability, headaches, blurred vision, eyestrain and dry eyes. The use of close-up vision when working on a computer could potentially favour certain vision disorders, but this has not yet been demonstrated.
 
The danger of prolonged sitting for advertising management staff: These days, the tasks involved in advertising management involve spending a great deal of time working on the computer, particularly in digital campaign management. This involves staff sitting in a static position for around seven hours a day. Remaining in this static position, without moving one's body, is in particular a vector of various physical health risks. The risks associated with working in a prolonged seated position are present whenever staff have to work in the office for several hours a day. These risks can be increased by working in a position that is unsuitable for the individual (e.g., a desk chair that is too high, or a desk that is too low, forcing the person to bend forward). Prolonged sitting can lead to various musculoskeletal disorders, such as neck stiffness and pain, sometimes with the onset of osteoarthritis, muscular pain in the trapezius area of the upper back, as well as varicose veins and venous circulation disorders. Lack of movement also has an effect on heart fitness and the shape of the body as a whole.
 
The danger of managerial stress for staff in charge of customer management and sales: Staff in charge of customer management and the sales side of the agency can be under considerable pressure, as in addition to satisfying their customers, they also have to satisfy their own hierarchy. This can lead to complex situations where expectations are incompatible. What's more, the agency's financial results will depend in part on their work, which is an additional source of stress. The risk is mainly present when there are contradictions between customer requirements and hierarchical demands. In addition, the risk can be heightened if there are high sales targets, long working hours, and/or a hierarchy that is very attentive to sales results.
