This page has content that's very similar or identical to content on other pages (either on your site or elsewhere). This confuses search engines. They don't know which page to show in search results, so they might rank all of them poorly. It's like having two identical books with different covers—which one is the original?
You have the same paragraph describing your company's history on your 'About Us' page and your 'Contact Us' page.
The best fix is to rewrite the content so each page is unique. If you absolutely must have the same content on multiple pages, you need to pick one 'main' version and tell Google about it using a canonical tag.
By creating unique content or using canonical tags, you're giving clear instructions to search engines. This resolves their confusion, consolidates your SEO value to a single page, and helps the correct page rank higher. Learn more from this Search Engine Land article on duplicate content.
