Hi, HSG L26 on page 16 does identify Risk Assessment, I would advise reading this from point 37 onwards as there are some interesting & valid points that you will find worthy of consideration & application. Hazards are not always obvious to the untrained & new employees, so your risk assessment will enable you as the competent person to identify any hazards with the equipment, furniture or environment that your employees may not recognise & will enable you to address any identified issues. This document can be downloaded for free at the link below http://books.hse.gov.uk/...alogueCode=9780717625826 It sounds like you already have a comprehensive DSE system in place but one which can only benefit from a risk assessment making it even more robust. If your management team are supporting Health & Safety in your work place then you are in a fortunate position & conducting this assessment will continue to encourage this supportive position.

Thanks everyone. Much appreciated.
