Display Screen Equipment (DSE) and Workstation Safety

Working with a poor workstation setup can lead to fatigue and soreness of the fingers, hands, wrists shoulders and neck, and in more severe cases, can lead to injuries in these areas. We call these ‘musculoskeletal injuries’ or ‘MSDs’. When we are thinking about desk set up and how we work, we also need to consider the stress we are under. Stress is a major cause of occupational ill health.
