KOS Ergonomics - Remote Assessment Service


Achieve compliance and set employees up to work productively at home to prevent injury arising.



Why do we need remote assessments?


• All employees are habitually working from home, require a suitable DSE assessment

• The Health and Safety Authority’s guide that to achieve compliance it is not sufficient to do a
pre-assessment or standard skype assessment where you are only looking at the person’s face
as you cannot sufficiently assess the risks of the work and the environment

• Most companies do not have internal assessors with experience or training in suitably
performing the assessment remotely to be deemed competent or technology available to
perform a suitable DSE assessment to be compliant.
