About this course

DSE training for people who work at a screen

Office staff and remote workers are both named in this course’s audience. The one-hour syllabus centres on the workstation: seating and posture, screen and keyboard positioning, and the assessment of the space where you work. It also includes breaks and eye-care topics. Call centre staff, administrators and IT professionals can use the course to study the DSE issues covered in their role.

How it fits with other workplace training

Choose this course for its focus on computer, laptop and tablet use. Health and safety for employees covers a wider set of staff responsibilities, including hazard reporting and PPE. For work involving lifting or moving loads, the manual handling course covers that separate subject.
