What is a DSE assessment?
A DSE assessment is a Display Screen Equipment assessment that is specific to the UK, however many other parts of the world recognise the value of the outputs from this survey.
This workstation assessment helps to identify any potential risks of harm from the use of digital screens such as computers, laptops and tablets. After the assessment, steps can be taken to lessen the impact of any potential risks.
You can read more about the UK DSE on the Health and Safety Executive website.
