Overview
VDUs are used across every industry and are a contributing factor to back injury and eye strain caused by poor ergonomics or incorrect positioning of equipment and lighting.
The General Application Regulations require employers to carry out a risk assessment of each VDU workstation. Our assessment covers equipment, software, ventilation, lighting, access and egress, ergonomics, housekeeping, space, noise, eye tests, electrical cables, manual handling and work-related stress, along with the employee’s routine, posture and seating.
Benefits
- Meet your legal requirements as an employer
- Understand design, engineering or ventilation problems in individual workstations
- Reduce repetitive strain injury (RSI) and work-related upper limb disorders
- Give staff a safer and more comfortable working environment
- Reduce stress and fatigue factors
- Identify any extra training or information employees need
How it works
Through discussion, training and adjustment we make practical suggestions to improve the ergonomic use of desks, chairs, screens, keyboards, mice and any other day-to-day equipment, reducing potential strain on workers.
