A one-day, in-company course that develops the knowledge and practical skills to carry out display screen equipment workstation assessments and recommend real ergonomic solutions.
DSE assessor training develops the knowledge and practical skills to carry out display screen equipment workstation assessments. KeyOstas delivers it as a one-day in-company course, and delegates leave able to assess workstations and recommend practical ergonomic improvements.
It is for the people who will carry out workstation assessments for others.
By the end of the day, every delegate will be able to do the following.
Describe the legal requirements for risk assessment and the main requirements of the DSE Regulations.
Explain the philosophy and principles of ergonomic risk assessment.
Describe the risk factors associated with work at DSE workstations.
Outline how static and dynamic biomechanics, the eye and fatigue affect the DSE user.
Identify the factors involved in a workstation assessment and carry one out.
Develop and use a simple assessment model and DSE protocol.
Check a workstation against the minimum requirements of the regulations.
Identify practical ergonomic solutions that eliminate or reduce the risks.
One day, building from the law and ergonomics to a practical assessment protocol.
