A workstation assessment is an evaluation of an individual's working position and equipment to identify and reduce musculoskeletal and visual risk. For screen-based roles it is synonymous with a DSE assessment and is required under SI 299/2007 in Ireland. For non-screen roles — production lines, laboratories, clinical settings — a workstation assessment forms part of a broader ergonomic assessment. The assessment looks at the chair, desk or bench, screen or task surface, input devices, lighting, posture and work organisation, and produces corrective actions and equipment recommendations.
