With 480,000 workers in Great Britain reporting musculoskeletal disorders often linked to poor workstation setup, this training is more critical than ever. This concise online course provides practical, easy-to-follow guidance on creating a safe and comfortable working environment.

  • Stress
    Examine the important of taking breaks and why changes in activity are crucial in reducing or preventing stress.
  • Portables
    Review portable display screen equipment, and how you can prevent muscle injury and joint problems when you're carrying or using them.

Accreditations: CPD certified, Citation, IIRSM, IOSH and RoSPA approved.
Languages: Available in 40 languages.
Duration: Approx. 25 minutes.
