Accident reporting and accident investigating

RoSPA's Accident Investigation support service has been designed to help you ensure that a thorough and unbiased investigation takes place that explores all lines of enquiry and results in a prioritised remedial action plan designed to minimise the likelihood of similar accidents happening again. 

A RoSPA consultant will help you to swiftly identify and assess a wide range of evidence to determine both the immediate and underlying factors as well as the effectiveness of your accident response arrangements. A detailed report will be produced that describes the accident causes and includes a comprehensive and prioritised action plan.

Display Screen Equipment assessments and ergonomic principles

Display screen equipment assessments are not only a legal requirement - done properly they can actually help combat the musculoskeletal disorders, reduced concentration levels and other ill-health effects that are symptomatic of time spent at poorly-designed workstations.

There are specific legislative and best practice requirements for the use of display screen equipment such as computers and their configuration and use, and RoSPA can assist organisations to comply with these requirements and thereby protect their staff from adverse health effects.

The assistance that can be provided ranges from an audit of computer workstations, development of suitable policies and procedures, to assessment of individual workstations and the training of computer users in correct working methods and posture.
