All organisations where employees are using computers, laptops, monitors and screens require DSE assessments to be conducted.
This is a legal requirement under the The Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 (as amended 2002) - employers must seek to protect health by reducing the risks associated with DSE work.
Poor workstation ergonomics and lack of DSE user training can lead to musculo-skeletal problems, visual fatigue and mental stress.
Why train a DSE assessor?
Training staff to become DSE assessors has a number of advantages:
• To reinforce your company’s commitment to safety issues
• To provide knowledge and structure to managers’ safety responsibilities
• Flexibility to conduct DSE assessments at timings to suit your business
• To save money on bespoke DSE contract costs
New dse assessments are required if the workstation, tasks or working environment has changed (eg: office relocation, new computer hardware)
