DSE/VDU Operator Safety Level 2 (VTQ)

This DSE / VDU Operator Safety Level 2 course provides essential guidance for anyone who regularly works with display screen equipment.

The course explains how incorrect posture and poor workstation setup can lead to health issues such as neck and back pain, headaches, eye strain, stiffness, and wrist or hand conditions.

Training covers correct seating and screen positioning, safe workstation layout, posture awareness, and practical steps to reduce the risk of long-term injury.

The course aligns with the Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 and supports workers classified as ‘DSE users’ who use display screens for extended periods.

Improving DSE awareness can lead to better comfort, productivity, and overall wellbeing in office and screen-based environments.

Most people take DSE and VDU training as a requirement for working safely in screen-based roles.

This course is suitable for anyone who uses computers, monitors, tablets or other display screens as part of their work.

Online learning allows you to train at your own pace, in your own time.

Some professionals that may benefit from this course include:

• Office staff
• Managers and supervisors
• Factory workers using display screens
• Retail and shop staff
• CCTV operatives
• Anyone classified as a DSE user
