NAT Display Screen Equipment (DSE) Training
Course Summary
Many people spend several hours a day using Display Screen Equipment (DSE) and are unaware of the health problems it can pose. Therefore, the Display Screen Equipment Regulations require DSE users, who work with DSE for the majority of their day, to receive training that teaches them how to maintain an ergonomic setup and follow safe practices.
This training course provides the delegate with an awareness of the health risks associated with working with DSE. It teaches the learner how their workplace should be set up so that the chances of developing musculoskeletal problems are minimised.
Course Objectives
