Competent DSE assessors, grounded in your setup
DSE Assessor training introduces delegates to the application of workplace DSE assessment - the legal requirements, ergonomic principles and how to run assessments that reduce the risk of DSE-related ill health. The course is designed for staff who will carry out workstation assessments in their organisation. Delivered on-site at your premises so examples and practical discussion reflect your own workstations and working arrangements - desk-based, hot-desking or home working.
Three steps to a certified team
Pick the course, confirm a date, and we run the training. Every delegate leaves with a certificate - clear booking, clear agenda, no admin chase.
01
Scoped to your workstations
Opus reviews your current DSE documentation, workstation setup and home-working arrangements before delivery. Examples and practical exercises are drawn from your own environment so the training produces usable assessment skills.
02
One-day delivery on-site
A one-day session covering legislation, design principles, ill-health effects, posture, ergonomics, equipment, environmental factors, risk assessment principles and DSE assessor responsibilities. Delegates practise running an assessment on a real workstation.
