Display Screen Assessment
Course overview
The Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations requires employers to assess and reduce the risks to employees in relation to the use of Computers and hand-held devices including lap-tops. Although e-learning programmes may be suitable for DSE user training on correct seating position etcetera, the HSE state that ‘software packages cannot constitute the whole of the assessment.
Employers should always ensure that a properly trained assessor goes over the results of their user assessments (whether these are software based or done by other means, such as a paper checklist). The assessor’s role is to clarify any doubtful points, provide any necessary feedback to users and ensure that any problems identified are put right, e g by changes to the DSE or workstation.’ (source:HSE) This DSE assessor course gives thorough understanding of the practical aspects of carrying out a DSE assessment as well as the requirements under relevant legislation.
