Hi there. I work for a small company with 7 desk based home working employees spread over a large geographic area. The only equipment we supply are PCs/laptops/mobile phones and/or tablets and printers. I'm trying to find out if we need to PAT test equipment or if risk assessments are sufficient and can an employees carry out their own risk assessment. I currently pay for eye tests due to VDU use. I think we'd realistically be looking at complying with regulations rather than best practice given the small number of people and how far someone would have to travel to visit each home. Thank you

Thank you imwaldra - printing this doc out as I type - at a first glance looks like just what I need
