At Workhappy, our DSE experts in Southampton are ready to take your organisation beyond compliance with our team-centred workstation assessments.
If you're responsible for organising DSE assessments in Southampton, our experts can help you make life happier and more comfortable for your teams. And because we recognise that all companies are unique, we'll find the right solution for all your workers — in the office or at home.
Musculoskeletal problems are the most common cause of work-related health issues. From eye strain and headaches to back pain and RSIs, display screen equipment (DSE) can contribute to a range of issues. As a result, under the Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992, you're legally required to provide workstation risk assessments to identify and mitigate risks.
It’s important to note that the obligation covers both
in-office workers and any remote or home-based employees.
You'll need to carry out ergonomic assessments:
As part of onboarding new employees
When a workstation is set up for the first time
When any changes are made to a workstation set up
When an employee reports pain and discomfort
When an employee's circumstances change through illness, injury or pregnancy
If you need DSE assessments in Southampton, our experts take a customer-first approach. We'll look at the user, the work they're carrying out, their equipment and their work environment. Then we'll identify the risks to health and wellbeing and recommend ways to improve employee comfort and productivity.
At Workhappy, ergonomic assessments are much more than a tick-box exercise. So our DSE experts in Southampton go beyond compliance to solve real-life problems and implement DSE best practices.
Whether you need DSE compliance fast with an online self-assessment or you need a fully managed DSE service, we’re here to help. Take a look at the services we have on offer:
This is a quick and hassle-free way to ensure compliance using our purpose-built software. With our online DSE self-assessments, your team members can carry out the assessment themselves, without the need for an in-person visit.
If you’re looking for a thorough, health-focused option, our in-person DSE assessmenst are just what you need. We’ll visit your Southampton office and work 1:1 with each of your team members to ensure they have the desk set-up they need to work safely.
Did you know that pregnant DSE workers face unique workplace risks? With our pregnant worker DSE risk assessments, we’ll help you support expectant and new mothers in your team.
This type of workstation assessment connects our DSE experts with remote workers to save you time and money. Our virtual (video) DSE assessments use 1:1 video sessions to provide you with our ergonomics expertise at a fraction of the cost.
Whether your team includes fully-remote or hybrid employees, our homeworker DSE assessments are efficient and flexible. Choose the format that works best for your staff members.
Do any of your team members have existing health conditions? Our advanced ergonomic assessments are carried out by NEBOSH assessors — they’ll give you the action plan you need to manage employees requiring special attention.
If you’re still unsure which type of DSE assessment is best for your Southampton business, our fully managed DSE services can take care of it. We’ll help you support your employees and remain compliant without the need to expand your team.
Alternatively, if you’d like your employees to undergo DSE assessor training, we can help with that, too. Our free sessions are convenient, engaging and expert-led — and always fully up-to-date with Health and Safety Executive guidance on DSE regulations. We can send one of our highly trained instructors to your Southampton office to teach your employees all they need to know about conducting basic in-house DSE assessments. Alternatively, you can opt for a remote training session.
