DSE Awareness (UK)
Display Screen Equipment (DSE) is found in almost every workplace. Improving its awareness can help minimise future health risks of employees. Whilst these health risks are not generally life threatening, they can cause discomfort, result in staff being off sick, and in some cases mean that an employee may not be able to undertake their normal duties. This course covers the safe adjustment of computer workstations, including desks and chairs. It explains DSE hazards and gives instructions on how to avoid them.
Covered in this course:
- DSE users and workstations
- Risks associated with DSE use
- Responsibilities of employers and employees in relation to DSE use
- The important role of properly adjusted display screen equipment for a safe workplace.
