Effective DSE training and risk
assessment should be a training priority for any organisation, says EssentialSkillz. Here are five reasons why.
EFFECTIVE PROBLEM SOLVING RIGHT ON THE
FRONTLINE Businesses have always looked at ways to streamline the efficiency and productivity of their office staff on every level. One of the best places to start is on the frontline in the office itself – or more importantly – with the equipment that employees use in their day-to-day.
It’s well documented that display screen equipment (DSE) related issues and injuries contribute to the employee sick days. A recent report by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) highlighted a variety of self-reported issues and concerns that relate to the habitual use of visual devices. Not only do these issues raise significant questions concerning costs to businesses but they also have a considerable impact on the overall productivity of your business.
DSE training represents a simple solution that allows employers to take proactive steps towards increasing productivity and boost employee wellbeing through one, cost-effective programme.
HEALTHY EMPLOYEES ARE HAPPIER
EMPLOYEES While training can be a smart investment that can help boost productivity, it’s also worth its weight in the positive impact it has on employee health and wellbeing. The HSE report found that employees reported high levels of issues relating to DSE use. Headaches made up for 52% of self-reported symptoms, while neck pain and back pain accounted for 47% and 37% respectively. And these are only a small number of concerns that can relate to DSE use.
A dedicated and actionable approach to DSE training can significantly reduce health-related issues from developing by making employers aware of issues that affect day to day activities. By working together with employees, employers have the opportunity to take proactive steps to improve the workplace for the better. It’s not only an effective way to reduce risks and achieve compliance but also to improve company culture.
KEEPING PACE WITH THE EVOLVING
WORKPLACE The meteoric evolution of technology, internet access, cloud computing, as well as the rise of dynamic workplaces, has begun to challenge perceptions about the office space as we know it.
