Display screens are essential for a significant number of workers. However, prolonged or improper DSE use is linked to a number of health risks.
Managers must comply with health and safety legislation and work to protect employees from the risks of unsafe DSE use. Specific duties include risk assessment of workstations and providing employees with relevant DSE safety training.
Our DSE Awareness for Managers course examines DSE regulation and the manager’s role in mitigating DSE health risks and creating a safe and productive work environment.
Incorrect use of display screens or poorly designed workstations can cause eye strain, fatigue and pain in the neck, shoulders and arms. If these issues are left unaddressed, they can result in more serious musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). There were over 477,000 reported cases of MSDs in 2021 alone, according to the Health and Safety Executive.
These health issues significantly reduce employee productivity and lead to increased absenteeism and associated costs for employers.
This DSE awareness course equips managers with the knowledge and skills to fulfil their legal duties and protect employees from the risks of incorrect DSE use. It empowers them to educate employees on safe display screen use, conduct DSE risk assessments and supervise the set up of ergonomic workstations.
