The Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 demand specific requirements of employers with the aim of protecting workers from the health risks associated with DSE.
This course explains everything to do with display screen equipment (DSE) and the risks they pose. When working at a desk for extended periods of time, it is important to ensure the workstation is planned in order to avoid stress and strain on the user.
In this DSE course we will be looking at the definition of DSE and the work station, as well as the health risks that can be caused by spending extended periods of time using display equipment. We will look at the responsibilities of the employee which ties in with the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, as well as the regulations and requirements when using DSE.

Finally, it will also explain how users should adopt healthy postures and apply safe techniques.
This course is perfect for anyone working in an office environment. It covers the risks and best practices to ensure staff is knowledgeable about DSE injuries and able to put measures in place to reduce the risks of any issues.
