Talking on the phone can give you a headache. It can also cause a pain in your neck. And not always due to whom you’re talking to or what you’re talking about.
Simply put, the way you hold your phone can put you at risk of injury.
In today’s work environment, workers often put themselves at risk of injury by pinning (cradling) the phone between their ear and shoulder to free up their hands to do something else.
