Risk Assessment of Display Screen Workstations
Display screen work is an essential part of most office and administrative jobs today. According to occupational safety regulations, employers are required to ensure that work involving display screens does not pose a risk to employees' health and safety. We provide expert support to help you meet these obligations.
What does the service include?
During the risk assessment of display screen workstations, we carry out a comprehensive evaluation of the working environment and work conditions, with particular focus on:
- ergonomic design of the workstation (desk, chair, monitor, keyboard, mouse),
- positioning of the screen, lighting conditions and glare,
- workplace lighting and noise exposure,
- duration and organization of work, breaks and workload,
- risks affecting vision, the musculoskeletal system and mental well-being.
How is the risk assessment carried out?
As part of an on-site assessment, we examine the affected workstations and, where necessary, consult with employees and management. Based on this, we prepare a documented risk assessment that complies with legal requirements. Identified risks are clearly defined, and practical, implementable recommendations are provided to reduce or eliminate them.
What does the employer receive?
- legally compliant risk assessment documentation,
- workstation-specific and personalized improvement measures,
- support in preparation for occupational safety inspections,
- a healthier, more ergonomic working environment for employees.
Why is it important?
A properly designed display screen workstation helps reduce eye strain, musculoskeletal complaints and work-related stress, while improving comfort and productivity. Risk assessment is not only a legal requirement, but also a long-term investment in employee health and organizational efficiency.
