Having your own on-site DSE Assessor allows you to better safeguard your employees’ health, and provides you with a fast, flexible, cost-effective risk management solution.

DSE Assessor training takes as little as 1 day for a group of up to 10 delegates.

The OFI trainer did an excellent job of clarifying & simplifying the risk surrounding DSE and workstation related injuries – and how best they can be avoided. I felt the training was very valuable and now feel confident in carrying out my own assessments.
