Do You Comply With Display Screen Equipment Regulations?
Does your organisation have employees that use display screen equipment in an office,
while working at home or when going out to visit customers or clients? If so, then
the Display Screen Equipment Regulations apply to your company.
Does your organisation provide training to these employees? You should be aware
that Regulation 6 of the Display Screen Equipment Regulations states that an employer
must train every user in the hazards and safe use of workstations.
If you are not training your employees, then you could be subject to an improvement
notice, prosecution or an increased risk of a civil claim against the organisation.
The provision of training is not a matter of choice or optional, it is an absolute
requirement.
Certification
On successful completion of the course you will be sent a quality assured certificate
through the post the next working day. This can be used to provide evidence for
compliance and audit.
Assessment
The online assessment is taken on completion of the training material. You will
be asked 16 multiple choice questions with a pass mark of 75%. The answers are marked
automatically so that you’ll instantly know whether you passed. If you don't pass
don't worry! You can take the test as many times as you need with no extra charge.
