The Tingdene Group recognises its responsibilities towards users of display screen equipment under the Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulation 1992 (as amended 2002) and aims to fulfil these obligations by application of this policy.
The policy has been reviewed and updated to be in line with the above regulation and should be used by all managers as the basis to manage all DSE users for the Group. This policy clearly outlines the Groups policy on DSE workstation assessments, the role of the DSE assessor, health surveillance and the reimbursement policy for eye tests and spectacles for DSE work.
Kindly note that it is not necessary to complete new DSE assessments using the new form until existing assessments have expired. Old versions of the policy and appendices should now be archived.
The policy and its appendices can also be accessed in the Group H&S T-drive folders: T:\GROUP\Health & Safety\POLICY\Display Screen Equipment-DSE
As always, if you have any queries, please feel free to contact our Group Health & Safety Manager, Andrew Edwards.
