Display Screen Equipment
As an employer you are legally required to provide Display Screen Equipment (DSE) training to all staff and anyone else who uses desktop or laptop computers (or even hand-held devices) at work. This course is interactive and engaging and provides a rapid solution that will help you meet your legal requirements and help your employees avoid the health issues related to working with DSE.
Health and Safety - In the Office
We all need to feel safe in the workplace and it is an employer’s job to ensure that the health and safety of all employees is protected. This may include checking on trip hazards, potentially harmful substances or working at height.
Risks and responsibilities
This course outlines the employer’s responsibilities under the Health and Safety at Work Act, raises awareness of risks and hazards, and shows learners how to take care of their own health and safety at work.
Manual Handling
Moving or lifting objects incorrectly is one of the most common causes of injury at work, accounting for over a third of all workplace injuries. Training on this aspect of health and safety is about teaching your employees to move heavy items safely either by lifting, carrying, lowering, pushing or pulling them. Our course will therefore suit those with jobs that involve heavy lifting to minimise the risk of injuries resulting in absences.
Stress at Work
The main symptoms of work related stress may include: apathy, fatigue, loss of productivity, trouble concentrating and feelings of depression. Employers need to raise awareness in the workplace and employees need to be able to combat stress and this course is the perfect way to do just that. This course helps employees and managers reduce workplace stress and will teach learners the skills necessary to combat it.
