Why DSE Risk Assessment Matters
Stronger, Safer, Smarter Workstations with iProtectU DSE Software & IIRSM-Approved Training
Every user of display screen equipment (DSE) – desktops, laptops, dual monitors, tablets – needs an assessment of their workstation setup.
- Incorrect seating positions
- Bad lighting and screen height
- Inadequate equipment
All of these can cause serious injuries and long-term health issues.
The UK HSE, European Safety and ISO 45001 standards make clear: employers must assess, mitigate, and monitor DSE risks for office, hybrid, and home workers. Our DSE software enables simple and effective assessment in all environments.
How iProtectU DSE Software Helps
Our DSE Software (Display Screen Equipment Risk Assessment Software) is designed to streamline and automate the process:
- Guided self-assessments with photos and evidence
- Manager review & corrective actions with deadlines and reminders
- Automated scheduling & renewals — never miss a reassessment
- Evidence-backed audit trail with versioned PDFs
- Integrated requests for equipment and eyesight tests
- Dashboards & analytics for trends and compliance reporting
- Mobile & offline support for hybrid and remote workers
The Training Connection: IIRSM Approved DSE Awareness Training
Technology works best when paired with knowledge. That’s why iProtectU also provides IIRSM-approved DSE Software Awareness eLearning.
Employees don’t just complete a DSE Software risk assessment – they complete internationally recognised training that helps them understand:
- Correct DSE workstation setup
- Best practices for posture and screen use
- How to spot early signs of DSE-related health issues
- When and how to raise requests for adjustments
Certificates of completion are automatically logged in the DSE software system, ensuring full compliance evidence.
Together, our DSE software + IIRSM training approach empowers staff, protects organisations, and builds a culture of health and safety.
