Workstation Risk Assessments
The following components of each employee’s workstation are evaluated for compliance with current legislation:-
Display Screen and CPU
Electronic Keyboard
Mouse or pointing device
Office desk including pedestal
Office chair safety check
Use of Digital Headset or Telephone
Human computer interface
Hardware & Software
Alignment including posture
Health and well being
Where corrective action is required, for example, an adjustment to the display screen, or chair, we fix these issues on site - thus making immediate improvements to the workstation. In turn, this helps to create a safer and healthier working environment for the employee. Each risk assessment takes approximately 15-20 minutes to complete on site and covers all safety aspects of the workstation and environment. On completion, a complimentary workstation user guide is given to each employee outlining the main points discussed. With over ten years experience of assessments and VDU sight screening within the industry, we have gained a reputation as an Irish/ EU compliance expert. On completion of the risk assessment, each employee receives a complimentary copy of our workstation user guide outlining best practice ergonomics.
