Press Release Body: Posture Group has launched a new version of its online DSE
assessment software system that is fully customisable to meet all client
requirements and can go as far as to put a client’s logo on the system. All
questions are fully customisable and so is the reporting system that produces DSE
assessment reports for all employees on completion of the online assessment.

Posture Group employs a team of more than 100 very experienced back pain, ergonomics
and health and safety consultants UK-wide and provides our range of online DSE
assessments, DSE assessments and DSE workstation assessments for more than 1,000
client’s.
Posture Group offers an online DSE training and workstation assessment system to
ensure compliance with Health and Safety regulations. Following completion of
assessments access to an online DSE report for each user provides designated line
managers with a view of responses where risks may be present, with suggested action
points in each case.
If necessary, Posture Group\'s consultants will visit your premises after the
assessments are completed to assist you in managing any users where further action
is required that cannot be easily managed from within the company.
Although the DSE software features a 3-D animated training video, should you wish
for face-to-face training for either line managers or users prior to commencing the
online assessments this is also available on site at your premises.
How the system works:
i) Users log on to the online DSE system and view Posture Group\'s 3-D animated
training video. This provides a visual guide to safe DSE set-up, seated posture and
other important considerations.
Note: DSE Assessor training can be provided to those members of staff nominated to
assist in the management of online assessments and post-assessment actions.
ii) Each user completes Posture Group\'s online assessment system, making any
necessary adjustments to their workstation as they go.

iii) Assessment data is automatically collated by the online system and displayed in
an online report summary with details of further action required for each member of
staff. Line managers can search for users by name or department.

iv) If Posture Group is required to assist with any post-assessment action a
consultant returns to provide a follow-up service – for example users with chronic
pain. This ensures costs are only incurred for one-to-one time with users that
require it.
