What is a Safety Alert?
When dangerous equipment, processes, procedures or substances are identified during or after an investigation or as the result of a notification from Europe, HSE may want to notify users and other stakeholders of the danger and the steps that need to be taken to rectify the fault or protect people against it; a safety alert achieves this. Safety alerts are intended for major faults that would result in an injury and where immediate remedial action is required.
What is a safety notice?
When potentially dangerous equipment, processes, procedures or substances have been identified and depending on the probability of the incident reoccurring and the possible severity of the injuries, HSE may want to inform all users and other stakeholders of the situation and the steps that should be taken to rectify the fault. Safety notices will be issued after consultation, when there are faults that could lead to an incident and remedial action should be taken. The scope may include items such as product labelling and operating instructions.
What is safety advice?
A safety advice contains general information about equipment, processes, procedures or substances, which will inform users and other stakeholders on how to use the equipment, processes, procedures or substances safely in order to avoid hazardous situations. This may be the result of concerted research or testing programme.
​Working safely with display
screen equipment (DSE)
As an employer, you must protect your workers from the health risks of working with display screen equipment (DSE), such as PCs, laptops, tablets and smartphones.
The Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations apply to workers who use DSE daily, for continuous periods of an hour or more. We describe these workers as 'DSE users'. The regulations don't apply to workers who use DSE infrequently or only use it for a short time. In law, employers must.
-
Do a DSE workstation assessment
-
Reduce risks, including making sure workers take breaks from DSE work or do something different
-
Provide an eye test if a worker asks for one
-
provide training and information for workers
