We include a Test at the end of the Training modules.

This Test is pertinent to your compliance with THE DSE Regulations, because as employers you have a duty of care towards your employees and part of this may involve providing relevant Training. If this training is not understood you may well be held liable for not ensuring the effectiveness of that Training.

The Test, concludes the training module and is presented in a multi-choice scenario. The questions are in the same section order as the training and are designed to test and prove the understanding or otherwise of the training. Wrong answers are advised to your Assessor, so that specific re-training can be provided.

The problem with a % Pass Mark is that the Questions a user gets wrong and has not understood may be the very ones that can create RSI/WRULDs, and a % Pass mark method is therefore a very ineffective way of proving your duty of care in relation to providing Training that is effective.

The DSE Regulations are clear:

"Workstation Assessment requirements to be completed... not later than end of December 1996."

"...ergonomic checklist, which should preferably be completed by users..."

Firstly we need to ensure that all the necessary questions are asked. Therefore the DSEasy checklist is comprehensive. Compare the difficulties of paper based assessments, with carrying them out on DSEasy:

The 2 minute checklist follows the training module after the quiz and each question is linked to its' relevant training section, should further information be required at this time.

Based on a series of Yes/No questions; when a negative is given, the user has the option of referring to the training program, making a user comment or moving on to the next question. All the users comments and every answer is available for analysis in the Report section.
