Without most people realizing it, there has beena revolution in office work over the last ten years.Before that time, large computers were only used by large, rich companies that could afford the investment. With the advancement of technology,small computers have come onto the market which are capable of doing the work which used to bedone by much larger and more expensive computers,so now most smaller companies can use them.
The main development in small computers has been in the field of word processors, or WPsas they are often called. 40% of British offices are now estimated to have a word processor forboth secretary and manager. The secretary is freed from a lot of routine work, such asre-typing letters and storing papers. He or she can use this time to do other more interestingwork for the boss. From a managers point of view, secretarial time is being made better use ofand money can be saved by doing routine jobs automatically outside office hours.
But is it all good? If a lot of routine secretarial work can be done automatically , surelythis will mean that fewer secretaries will be needed. Another worry is the increasing medical problems related to work with visual display units. The case of a slow loss of sight amongpeople using word processors seems to have risen greatly. It is also feared that if a womanworks at a VDU for long hours, the unborn child in her body might be killed. Safety screens toput over a VDU have been invented but few companies in England bother to buy them.
