✅ Check out our free DSE Assessment Tool for Workplaces!
If you’re managing a team that works with computers, you’re legally required to carry out DSE (Display Screen Equipment) assessments. But most businesses either skip this task, do it poorly, or waste hours using outdated templates.
That’s why we built a completely free online DSE Assessment Tool to simplify the process for both managers and employees. No paperwork, no PDFs — just a quick, effective, digital workflow.
🖥️ What Is a DSE Assessment?
A DSE assessment is a legal requirement under the Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992. It’s designed to ensure that employees using screens (e.g. computers, laptops, tablets) are working safely and comfortably.
DSE assessments help identify issues like:
- Poor posture or workstation layout
- Risk of repetitive strain injuries (RSIs)
- Eye strain, headaches, and fatigue
- Inadequate lighting or screen positioning
Employers must review these assessments regularly, especially for:
- New starters
- Remote/hybrid workers
- Employees reporting discomfort
- Significant workplace changes

📄 What Does the Law Say About DSE?
According to the UK Health and Safety Executive (HSE), employers must:
- Identify “DSE users” (anyone using screens daily for over 1 hour)
- Conduct risk assessments
- Provide suitable equipment or training
- Offer regular breaks and eye tests
Failure to comply can result in fines, employee injury claims, and lost productivity.
