Hi Jackie

Having taken voluntary redundancy I am now looking for
a more RSI friendly working environment.
Unfortunately I haven't come across any agencies
specialising in helping RSI sufferers, but something
I did find useful was to see a careers consultant in
order to look at all the possibilities open to me
which wouldn't involve spending all day at a PC.
There are many consultants around, I used one from a
company called TMP CEPEC who was very good (it was
part of my redundancy package), but your local
careers centre should be in the phone book and they
offer free advice.

Unfortunately in my case I will have to do some
retraining and take a pay cut in the short term, but
this has to be better in the long run if it allows me
to have an better quality of life. My previous job
meant that I was unable to perform the everyday tasks
which your boyfriend is having problems with,
although I was working full time in permanent
discomfort. Working in this way made me totally
miserable and resentful of my work, not a situation
that I want to find myself in again.

Has anyone else had a career change as a result of
their RSI? It would be interesting to hear how other
people have managed with this.

Hope your boyfriend finds something soon.

Best regards

Kathryn
