A half-day, in-company course that gives display screen equipment users the knowledge to recognise the risks of screen work and to set up their own workstation safely.
DSE awareness training gives display screen equipment users the knowledge to work safely at a screen: the risks of DSE work, the requirements of the DSE Regulations, and how to set up and adjust their own workstation. KeyOstas delivers it in half a day at your premises.
It is for the people who work at a screen, wherever they work.
By the end of the half day, every delegate will be able to do the following.
Describe, in plain terms, the legal requirements for risk assessment and the main requirements of the DSE Regulations.
Outline the basic principles of ergonomic risk assessment.
Describe the risk factors associated with work at a DSE workstation.
Recognise the aches, eye strain and fatigue that a poor set-up can cause.
Outline the minimum requirements a DSE workstation should meet.
Look at your own workstation and recognise what needs adjusting.
Apply practical ergonomic solutions to your own set-up.
Know when and how to raise a workstation problem with your employer.
A focused half day for the screen users themselves.
Practical and discussion-led, with no written exam.
A KeyOstas tutor delivers the session at your premises, and your own workstations can be used.
