Individual Display Screen Equipment (DSE) assessments and training must be undertaken for any employees / colleagues who use computers or other DSE for work.
New colleagues
New employees/ colleagues must complete the online Display Screen Equipment Course available on the People Development Hub, then complete the DSE Assessment Form. A link to the form is also available via the online course.
It is a mandatory requirement for all employees / colleagues to complete the online Display Screen Equipment course every year (available on the People Hub). This includes those working on campus or from home. Line managers are responsible for ensuring that their employees complete the assessment and training.
The DSE assessment should be reviewed whenever there are changes to workstation layout or the nature of the work. Also if the user reports health issues associated with using DSE. DSE workstation assessments are undertaken using the DSE Assessment Form.
Employees / Colleagues should discuss the DSE assessment with their Line Manager, who should take appropriate action to address any concerns
