Display Screen Equipment

DSE Assessments

Businesses are legally required to ensure that all employees who use display screen equipment are protected from health and safety risks. As more businesses today are making the most of using digital equipment, it is more important that ever. A lot of these devices are defined as 'digital screen equipment' or DSE. Whilst most display screens don't cause huge harm, using them wrongly can lead to future health risks. If employers don't manage DSE use, they could end up injuring people, paying fines, and causing business losses.

This page provides an overview of the legal requirements, and helpful information about how employers and employees can fulfil their obligations.
