Healthcare prevention areas: the teams mainly work sitting in front of one or more screens and employees are sedentary, with intense visual activity. The key areas for occupational illness prevention are stress management (and/or psychosocial risks: PSR) and the prevention of musculoskeletal disorders (MSD). Visual fatigue and the prevention of risks linked to a sedentary lifestyle (cardiovascular diseases) are integrated into the health prevention plans, which include several components: office arrangements for working in a standing position, nutrition, physical/ocular exercises, disconnection and advice on how to set up a pleasant corner in a constrained space for remote working. For the more sporty, many agencies facilitate access to nearby gyms by offering discounts on subscriptions or have distributed online courses. Some entities are equipped with their own sports halls, with an on‑site trainer or coach, like Sapient in India, or like the Bastille Campus in Paris. Free virtual sessions for all allow those who wish to exercise. Finally, for the most energetic, agencies encourage teams to take part in sports events (running, cycling, marathons or half‑marathons, team sports).
