                       Air and water quality monitoring involves checking pollution levels, using tools to measure them,
                      and reporting to the authorities for action.
                       To care for your muscles and joints, ensure your workstation is comfortable, take frequent breaks,
                      and use tools that reduce strain.
                       Occupational Overuse Syndrome (OOS) occurs when repetitive movements  lead to discomfort.
                      Prevent it by using ergonomic tools, taking regular breaks, and maintaining correct posture.

                       For workplace safety, set up a comfortable workstation, ensure proper lighting, reduce noise, and
                      provide ample space for movement.

                       To protect computers, use surge protectors, keep devices away from water, unplug when repairing,
                      and ensure cooling systems are functioning properly.
                       For cord safety, keep cords clear of pathways, ensure they stay dry, and mark areas where they might
                      cause accidents.
