Non Manual Work (Including professional administrative or clerical duties only)



Doing non-manual work, such as clerical, professional, or administrative duties is especially useful for students who want to make money over the summer. Although not as exciting as adventure sports or hikes, non-manual work is more productive, and it lets you meet and help other people. It is also much safer than sports, although minor accidents may still occur. Before engaging in non-manual work during the break, make sure you have proper insurance.

The risks involved in non-manual work include stress, hand and wrist strain, and eye strain (especially if you work at a computer). Sitting at a desk for long hours can also hurt the back and shoulders. These can be prevented by taking occasional breaks from work to rest the eyes, and using ergonomic equipment such as padded chairs and arm rests. Although the injuries are relatively mild, they can take time to heal and may cost you a lot, especially if your insurance does not cover non-manual work.

There are non-manual work opportunities in most areas, so you can work even if you're visiting foreign cities. It's a great way to meet their locals, get to know their culture, and even learn their language. It's also a good option for those who are not allowed heavy physical activity, due to previous injuries or medical conditions.

Non-manual work is considered a Grade 1 risk activity. This makes it one of the safest things to do during your free time. However, having your insurance in place beforehand will make you more confident and let you fully enjoy your vacation.
