Course Background

Computer workstations or equipment can be associated with neck, shoulder, back or arm pain as well as with fatigue and eyestrain. The Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 aims to protect the health of people who work with DSE by requiring that every employer perform a suitable and sufficient assessment of all workstations.

There is a requirement for DSE assessments anywhere where workers spend a significant amount of working time using display screen equipment, including those working from home.
