BENEFICIAL WORK PRACTICES FOR THE KEYBOARD
OPERATOR
A Sensible work practices are an important factor in the prevention of muscular
fatigue; discomfort or pain in the arms, neck, hands or back; or eye strain which can be
associated with constant or regular work at a keyboard and visual display unit (VDU).
B It is vital that the employer pays attention to the physical setting such as
workplace design, the office environment, and placement of monitors as well as the
organisation of the work and individual work habits. Operators must be able to recognise
work-related health problems and be given the opportunity to participate in the
management of these. Operators should take note of and follow the preventive
measures outlined below.
C The typist must be comfortably accommodated in a chair that is adjustable for
height with a back rest that is also easily adjustable both for angle and height. The back
rest and sitting ledge (with a curved edge) should preferably be cloth-covered to avoid
excessive perspiration.
D When the keyboard operator is working from a paper file or manuscript, it should
be at the same distance from the eyes as the screen. The most convenient position can
be found by using some sort of holder. Individual arrangement will vary according to
whether the operator spends more time looking at the VDU or the paper – whichever the
eyes are focused on for the majority of time should be put directly in front of the
operator.
E While keying, it is advisable to have frequent but short pauses of around thirty to
sixty seconds to proofread. When doing this, relax your hands. After you have been
keying for sixty minutes, you should have a ten minute change of activity. During this
spell it is important that you do not remain seated but stand up or walk around. This
period could be profitably used to do filing or collect and deliver documents.
F Generally, the best position for a VDU is at right angles to the window. If this is
not possible then glare from the window can be controlled by blinds, curtains or movable
screens. Keep the face of the VDU vertical to avoid glare from overhead lighting.
G Unsatisfactory work practices or working conditions may result in aches or pain.
Symptoms should be reported to your supervisor early on so that the cause of the
trouble can be corrected and the operator should seek medical attention.
QUESTIONS 22–28
Read the text below and answer Questions 22–28.
Workplace dismissals
Before the dismissal
If an employer wants to dismiss an employee, there is a process to be followed.
Instances of minor misconduct and poor performance must first be addressed through
some preliminary steps.
Firstly, you should be given an improvement note. This will explain the problem, outline
any necessary changes and offer some assistance in correcting the situation. Then, if
your employer does not think your performance has improved, you may be given a
written warning. The last step is called a final written warning which will inform you that
you will be dismissed unless there are improvements in performance. If there is no
improvement, your employer can begin the dismissal procedure.
The dismissal procedure begins with a letter from the employer setting out the charges
made against the employee. The employee will be invited to a meeting to discuss these
accusations. If the employee denies the charges, he is given the opportunity to appear at
a formal appeal hearing in front of a different manager. After this, a decision is made as
to whether the employee will be let go or not.
Dismissals
Of the various types of dismissal, a fair dismissal is the best kind if an employer wants
an employee out of the workplace. A fair dismissal is legally and contractually strong and
it means all the necessary procedures have been correctly followed. In cases where an
employee’s misconduct has been very serious, however, an employer may not have to
follow all of these procedures. If the employer can prove that the employee’s behaviour
was illegal, dangerous or severely wrong, the employee can be dismissed immediately:
a procedure known as summary dismissal.
Sometimes a dismissal is not considered to have taken place fairly. One of these types
is wrongful dismissal and involves a breach of contract by the employer. This could
involve dismissing an employee without notice or without following proper disciplinary
and dismissal procedures. Another type, unfair dismissal, is when an employee is
sacked without good cause.
There is another kind of dismissal, known as constructive dismissal, which is slightly
peculiar because the employee is not actually openly dismissed by the employer. In this
case the employee is forced into resigning by an employer who tries to make significant
changes to the original contract. This could mean an employee might have to work night
shifts after originally signing on for day work, or he could be made to work in dangerous
conditions.
Questions 22 and 23
Complete the sentences below.
Choose NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS from the text for each answer.
Write your answers in boxes 22–23 on your answer sheet.
22 If an employee receives a ……………….. , this means he will lose his job if his
work does not get better.
23 If an employee does not accept the reasons for his dismissal, a ……………….. can
be arranged.
Questions 24–28
Look at the following descriptions (Questions 24–28) and the list of terms in the box
below.
Match each description with the correct term A–E.
Write the appropriate letter A–E in boxes 24–28 on your answer sheet.
24 An employee is asked to leave work straight away because he has done
something really bad.
25 An employee is pressured to leave his job unless he accepts conditions that are
very different from those agreed to in the beginning.
26 An employer gets rid of an employee without keeping to conditions in the contract.
27 The reason for an employee’s dismissal is not considered good enough.
28 The reasons for an employee’s dismissal are acceptable by law and the terms of
the employment contract.
A Fair dismissal
B Summary dismissal
C Unfair dismissal
D Wrongful dismissal
E Constructive dismissal
SECTION 3 QUESTIONS 29–40
Read the text below and answer Questions 29–40
A From the very first caveman to scale a tree or hang from a cliff face, to the mighty
armies of the Greco-Roman empires and the gymnasiums of modern American high
schools, calisthenics has endured and thrived because of its simplicity and utility. Unlike
strength training which involves weights, machines or resistance bands, calisthenics
uses only the body’s own weight for physical development.
B Calisthenics enters the historical record at around 480 B.C., with Herodotus’
account of the Battle of Thermopolylae. Herodotus reported that, prior to the battle, the
god-king Xerxes sent a scout party to spy on his Spartan enemies. The scouts informed
Xerxes that the Spartans, under the leadership of King Leonidas, were practicing some
kind of bizarre, synchronised movements akin to a tribal dance. Xerxes was greatly
amused. His own army was comprised of over 120,000 men, while the Spartans had just
300. Leonidas was informed that he must retreat or face annihilation. The Spartans did
not retreat, however, and in the ensuing battle they managed to hold Xerxes’ enormous
army at bay for some time until reinforcements arrived. It turns out their tribal dance was
not a superstitious ritual but a form of calisthenics by which they were building awe-
inspiring physical strength and endurance.
C The Greeks took calisthenics seriously not only as a form of military discipline and
strength, but also as an artistic expression of movement and an aesthetically ideal
physique. Indeed, the term calisthenics itself is derived from the Greek words for beauty
and strength. We know from historical records and images from pottery, mosaics and
sculptures of the period that the ancient Olympians took calisthenics training seriously.
They were greatly admired – and still are, today – for their combination of athleticism
and physical beauty. You may have heard a friend whimsically sigh and mention that
someone ‘has the body of a Greek god’. This expression has travelled through centuries
and continents, and the source of this envy and admiration is the calisthenics method.
D Calisthenics experienced its second golden age in the 1800s. This century saw the
birth of gymnastics, an organised sport that uses a range of bars, rings, vaulting horses
and balancing beams to display physical prowess. This period is also when the
phenomena of strongmen developed. These were people of astounding physical
strength and development who forged nomadic careers by demonstrating outlandish
feats of strength to stunned populations. Most of these men trained using hand
balancing and horizontal bars, as modern weight machines had not yet been invented.
E In the 1950s, Angelo Siciliano – who went by the stage name Charles Atlas – was
crowned “The World’s Most Perfectly Developed Man”. Atlas’s own approach stemmed
from traditional calisthenics, and through a series of mail order comic books he taught
these methods to hundreds of thousands of children and young adults through the 1960s
and 1970s. But Atlas was the last of a dying breed. The tides were turning, fitness
methods were drifting away from calisthenics, and no widely-regarded proponent of the
method would ever succeed him.
F In the 1960s and 1970s calisthenics and the goal of functional strength combined
with physical beauty was replaced by an emphasis on huge muscles at any cost. This
became the sport of body building. Although body building’s pioneers were drawn from
the calisthenics tradition, the sole goal soon became an increase in muscle size. Body
building icons, people such as Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sergio Oliva, were called
mass monsters because of their imposing physiques. Physical development of this
nature was only attainable through the use of anabolic steroids, synthetic hormones
which boosted muscle development while harming overall health. These body builders
also relied on free weights and machines, which allowed them to target and bloat the
size of individual muscles rather than develop a naturally proportioned body.
Calisthenics, with its emphasis on physical beauty and a balance in proportions, had
little to offer the mass monsters.
G In this “bigger is better” climate, calisthenics was relegated to groups perceived to
be vulnerable, such as women, people recuperating from injuries and school students.
Although some of the strongest and most physically developed human beings ever to
have lived acquired their abilities through the use of sophisticated calisthenics, a great
deal of this knowledge was discarded and the method was reduced to nothing more than
an easily accessible and readily available activity. Those who mastered the rudimentary
skills of calisthenics could expect to graduate to weight training rather than advanced
calisthenics.
H In recent years, however, fitness trends have been shifting back toward the use of
calisthenics. Bodybuilding approaches that promote excessive muscle development
frequently lead to joint pain, injuries, unbalanced physiques and weak cardiovascular
health. As a result, many of the newest and most popular gyms and programmes
emphasise calisthenics-based methods instead. Modern practices often combine
elements from a number of related traditions such as yoga, Pilates, kettle-ball training,
gymnastics and traditional Greco-Roman calisthenics. Many people are keen to recover
the original Greek vision of physical beauty and strength and harmony of the mind-body
connection.

QUESTIONS 36–40
Complete the summary below.
Choose NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS from the text for each answer.
Write your answers in boxes 36–40 on your answer sheet.
During the sixties and seventies, attaining huge muscles became more important than
36 ……………….. or having an attractive-looking body. The first people to take up this
new sport of body building had a background in calisthenics but the most famous
practitioners became known as 37 ……………….. on account of the impressive size of
their muscles. Drugs and mechanical devices were used to develop individual muscles
to a monstrous size.
Calisthenics then became the domain of ‘weaker’ people: females, children and those
recovering from 38 ……………….. . Much of the advanced knowledge about calisthenics
was lost and the method was subsequently downgraded to the status of a simple, user-
friendly activity. Once a person became skilled at this, he would progress to 39
……………….. .
Currently a revival of calisthenics is under way as extreme muscle building can harm the
body leaving it sore, out of balance, and in poor 40 ……………….. .
