Duration & Assessment
​
Each individual will take part in an online class session where each of the participants will learn about the importance of VDU Assessments and the legislation surrounding the assessments. When the course is complete we will issue the online form to both you and your employees to complete. Once all the forms are complete we will then spend 20-30 minutes assessing your workstation, depending on the individual’s needs or predefined injuries. Once assessed, the reports are sent to the employer.
​
We offer training to companies or organisations that are looking to have their staff trained in the early morning before work, in the evening after work, or on weekends. We will work to your schedule. Please contact us below to discuss further.
​
Certification
​
Each person who attends training will receive a Secusafe Certificate upon completion.
​
Your organisation will also receive a completion certificate with your report once also all tasks and advisories are completed.
Report
​
We will complete a full report in order to comply with the legislation and the VDU assessment process should be renewed if:
​
-
an employee’s job changes and as such changes their workload on a day to day basis; or
-
if they make a desk move or if their physical abilities change
Requirements
​
We require that the person being assessed takes part actively in the assessment in order to maximise the results. The person should have access to a camera to show the assessor their VDU/DSE workstation.
In Addition
We can carry out the training sessions and workstation assessments in person. If you wish to avail of this service please call us today for more information.
