THE REGULATIONS ABOUT WORKING WITH VDU
The Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 implement an EC Directive and came into effect from January 1993 (some small changes were made in 2002). The regulations require employers to minimise the risks in VDU work by ensuring that workplaces and jobs are well designed.
Who is affected ?
The Regulations apply where staff habitually use VDUs as a significant part of their normal work. Other people, who use VDUs only occasionally, are not covered by the requirements in the Regulations (apart from the workstation requirements). However, their employers still have general duties to protect them under other health and safety at work legislation.
Employees covered by the Regulations can ask their employer to provide and pay for an eye and eyesight test. This is a test by an optometrist. There is also an entitlement to further tests at regular intervals; the optometrist doing the first test can recommend when the next should be. Employers only have to pay for spectacles if special ones (for example, prescribed for the distance at which the screen is viewed) are needed and normal ones cannot be used.
