Display Screen Equipment (DSE) & HSE Risk Assessments

(9 Items)

Back Care Solutions delivers comprehensive Display Screen Equipment (DSE) assessments and supports organisations with their HSE risk assessment responsibilities across the UK. Through our nationwide network of experienced assessors and qualified health professionals, we provide clear, practical guidance for businesses in all industries and working environments.

Back Care Solutions provides both on-site and remote DSE assessments, ensuring that home-based, office, or hybrid workers can all enjoy safe, ergonomic workstations and full HSE compliance. Our assessments offer accurate, transparent advice on the behaviours, workstation setups, and ergonomic products that organisations should consider to meet DSE and HSE requirements. We highlight any areas of non-compliance and outline the steps needed to create safer, more comfortable working conditions.

Where possible, our assessors prioritise the optimisation of existing equipment before suggesting new products. In many cases, simple adjustments or improved working habits are enough to achieve compliance. Our approach focuses on educating each user, so they understand how to set up and use their workstation correctly, helping to prevent discomfort and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal issues.

After every assessment, we provide a full written report detailing any changes made and outlining further improvements or equipment considerations that may benefit both the user and the organisation.

If you would like to arrange a DSE assessment, please get in touch. Alternatively, you can purchase an assessment directly via our website using the service options on this page.

What Is a Display Screen Equipment (DSE) Workstation Assessment?

A DSE assessment is a structured workstation risk assessment designed to identify factors that may cause discomfort, poor posture, or long-term injury through prolonged computer or device use. The assessment reviews the working environment, equipment setup, seating position, and working habits to determine whether the workstation meets DSE and wider HSE risk assessment standards.

A well-conducted DSE assessment helps reduce the likelihood of musculoskeletal disorders, eye strain, repetitive strain injury (RSI), and general workplace discomfort. It also ensures that employers meet their legal obligations by providing safe, suitable equipment and appropriate workstation adjustments for each individual.

Back Care Solutions offers a full range of DSE and ergonomic assessments, carried out by trained assessors and qualified health professionals. Our team provides practical, easy-to-implement recommendations that support the wellbeing of your workforce and help maintain compliance with HSE guidance.

Do You Have Multiple Employees Requiring DSE Assessments?

If several team members require assessments, booking in groups is the most efficient and cost-effective approach. Scheduling multiple workstation assessments at the same time reduces travel costs, speeds up the process, and ensures consistency across your assessments. It also enables organisations to identify patterns or widespread issues that may be affecting staff comfort or productivity.

Whether you need assessments for a small team or a large workforce, we can provide tailored pricing and flexible availability to suit your requirements.

DSE & HSE Risk Assessment FAQs

Answers to common questions about Display Screen Equipment (DSE) assessments and HSE risk assessments.

What Is A DSE (Display Screen Equipment) Assessment?

A DSE assessment is a structured workstation risk assessment that identifies factors that may cause discomfort, poor posture, or long-term injury from prolonged use of computers or display screen equipment. The assessment reviews workstation setup, seating, equipment, and working habits to ensure compliance with DSE and HSE standards.

Is A DSE Assessment Legally Required?

Yes. Under HSE regulations, employers must complete DSE assessments for employees who use display screen equipment daily for an hour or more. This ensures the workplace meets safety standards and helps prevent musculoskeletal issues.

How Often Should A DSE Assessment Be Carried Out?

DSE assessments should be done for new employees, when staff report discomfort, after significant workplace changes, or when new equipment is introduced. Regular reviews help maintain ongoing compliance and comfort.

Can DSE Assessments Be Done Remotely Or At Home?

Yes. Back Care Solutions provides both on-site and remote DSE assessments to support employees in the office, at home, or working flexibly. Remote assessments are structured to ensure the same level of accuracy and guidance as in-person evaluations.

What Happens After A DSE Assessment?

After an assessment, a full written report is provided. This report details any adjustments made, outlines recommendations for future improvements, and highlights any equipment considerations to support employee comfort and HSE compliance.

Booking multiple assessments simultaneously is a cost-effective and efficient approach. It reduces travel, ensures consistency across assessments, and helps organisations quickly identify patterns or widespread issues affecting staff wellbeing.
