Control Room DSE Assessment
Our Control Room DSE Ergonomic Assessment is a proactive, on-site service designed to ensure your control room setup complies with the Display Screen Equipment (DSE) Regulations 1992 (amended 2002).
MSK MOT ASSESSMENT
By observing workstations and engaging directly with employees, we provide practical insights and recommendations that support both compliance and wellbeing.
This service helps identify ergonomic risks, prevent musculoskeletal (MSK) issues, and promote a safer, more comfortable working environment for control room staff.
IN PERSON SERVICE
Control Room DSE Assessment
A qualified DSE Assessor will visit your control room to carry out a comprehensive ergonomic review. The process includes:
- A walkthrough assessment of the control room using the PAM Physio DSE Control Room Assessment Form.
- Observation of workstation setups and identification of any significant ergonomic risks.
- Informal conversations with employees to gather feedback on MSK symptoms or discomfort.
- Basic advice for employees without reported issues and referrals for those who may need a more detailed DSE or Ergonomic Workstation (EWSA) Assessment.
Assessment duration varies depending on the size and needs of your business, ranging from half a day to a full day.
