What is Display Screen Equipment?  In its simplest terms it is the computer screen and associated  keyboard, mouse and the desk and chair of the work station at which  the computer is used.   Lockton is committed to meeting all the requirements of the various  regulations and recommendations regarding the provision of an  acceptable working environment for its staff.   This particular document is concerned with the display screen  equipment regulations, and should issues arise which are outside this  document then these issues should be raised via the individuals line  manager.  To avoid doubt this policy applies to all full and part time associates  including home workers. Agency employees working for Lockton or  contractors will probably have requirements placed on them by their  employing agency and must satisfy those.  Temporary and Contract Staff must follow all Lockton Health &  Safety policies.  Our Policy  We will maintain procedures to meet with the requirements of the  Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992.   Lockton will have in place a procedure which will allow all employees  to review information via the Intranet which will give associates the  required information to:   understand the requirements of the DSE regulations    complete a short test of that knowledge
