This has been on before but I tried searching and failed I'm afraid. Looking for suggested videos for DSE user training. I can search on youtube but if anyone has a good idea please let us know. Thanks

There is some standard dull stuff out there on youtube, but if you can stand the USA theme, this one is short, (5 mins) and humorous but actually quite practical too.
At least there is plenty of movement - don't see the point of using video to show either static shots or talking heads. People don't really need a lot of training on how to sit comfortably (for them). Key points: office chair backrests are often just too low (in the default delivery position) and people also try to sit up 90 deg straight, ("correctly") setting backrests too upright. A slight recline works wonders.

For a quick link to a brief video with some official 'clout', a gentleman from the HSE gives a video talk on the NHS Choices website at this link: http://www.nhs.uk/livewe...s/howtositcorrectly.aspx

Curious I checked out the above video link. Only marginally more animated than looking at a leaflet. Not sure about 'gentleman' with rather disturbing touching. I can't remember the last time I saw anyone using a wrist rest either. What did you opt for Firesafety101?

'rather disturbing touch' come on, he's demonstrating something I can't believe these posters at times.

Fire Safety- One of the NAPO DVDs - think it's" lighten the load"- does have a bit about DSE, I occasionallly used it as a background clip and as a conversation starter when I know there are people present who have had problems with " orthopaedic chairs". Finding suitable clips is difficult, they need to reflect the environment you are working in to have any credibility. Too dry and fact filled and people switch off, if they look dated then the audience get distracted by the clunky equipment, dodgy perms and frilled shirts. Aud- why the snippy comment about wrist rests? I occasionally use one my self. Annic
