<abstract displayLabel="Summary">The overall goal of the present study was to determine if the previously reported beneficial effects of frequent, short rest breaks on worker productivity and well-being hold true for workers performing existing computer-mediated tasks in an actual workplace. Based on a task analysis at two separate work sites, workers were prompted when to take short rest breaks from computer work, lasting either 30 s or 3 min., at 15-min intervals throughout the work day in addition to their conventional rest breaks. In one condition of the experiment, operators were asked to perform a set of simple stretching exercises during the short breaks to accelerate recovery of the musculoskeletal system. The effects of the added rest breaks on worker productivity and well-being were then examined separately at each work site</abstract>
