When a checklist isn't enough

A checklist catches the common, easy-to-fix issues. It won't resolve persistent pain, a return-to-work case, or a complex setup — and it doesn't satisfy the per-employee DSE assessment that SI 299/2007 requires for screen-based staff.

For those, Usafety delivers DSE assessments (remote or onsite) and specialist ergonomic assessments.

Need assessments done properly?

DSE assessments are available remotely or onsite, with documented reports and organisation-level oversight.
