My old man's secretary was a italian girl who had RSI diagnosed by her local family italian doctor in Australia. The doctor stated she could only work 4 hours a day and knowing that it was a load of crap /scam and that she lived far out of the city he asked that she work 8-10 am and 4-6 pm to counter it. Now I know RSI can occur because I got it when I was 12 when I clocked space invaders over a 48 hour period. My wrist froze up for about a day. Anyway my point is a secretary would need to be writing a hell of a lot of work before RSI actually occurred. Most secretaries type less than your average white collar employee so in most cases its I believe its all a load of bull.
