Display Screen Equipment Awareness Course
The Display Screen Equipment (DSE) Awareness course imparts awareness about the health risks linked to operating display screen equipment and instructs learners on configuring their workplace to minimize the likelihood of developing musculoskeletal issues.
The Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations encompass specific guidelines addressing safety concerns related to DSE. Both employers and employee-users bear responsibilities as outlined in the legislation.
A considerable number of individuals dedicate numerous hours daily to using display screen equipment, often oblivious to the potential health issues it may pose. Consequently, compliance with the Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 mandates that DSE users, engaging with such equipment for a significant portion of their day, undergo training. This training aims to equip them with the knowledge to establish an ergonomic setup and adhere to safe practices.
