DSE Workstation

The numbered issues are as follows:

1. Adjustable height and angle to seat back.

2. Good lumbar support.

3. Adjustable seat height to bring the hands to a comfortable position on the keyboard. Seat also has a stable five–star base.

4. Correct seat – height adjustment and keeping the feet supported prevents excess pressure on underside of thighs and backs of knees.

5. Foot support if user cannot get their feet on the floor.

6. Space for postural change, no obstacles under desk; this allows the user to fidget and change position as they work.

7. Forearms approximately horizontal when hands are on keyboard.

8. Minimal extension, flexion or deviation of wrists; wrists should be straight and flat when on the keyboard, indicating proper seat-height adjustment.

9. Screen height and tilt should be adjustable to allow comfortable head position.

10. Space in front of keyboard to support hands/wrists during pauses in keying; a wrist-rest can provide further support, if required.

Manual HandlingHazards: -

Efficient Movement Principles: -

Employees should be trained in efficient movement principles that incorporate basic safe lifting techniques. This technique minimizes the risk of musculoskeletal disorders and consists of the following steps:

Before lifting:

Check the weight, C of G and stability of the load.

Plan the route of the carry.

Establish a firm grip.

The lift:

Bend the knees and use the leg muscles to lift.

Keep the back upright.

Keep the load close to the body.

Avoid twisting, over-reaching, jerking.

Setting down:

Use the same principles as when lifting.

Maintain good balance.

Set the load down and then adjust its position using body weight.

Nebosh Exam Technique

1. Read the Question Carefully. Be sure you know exactly what type of information the question is asking for. 

2. Time Monitor:- 

The 20-mark question in the first section should take around 25 minutes to answer, with five minutes reviewing time. 

The 8-mark questions in section 2 should take around eight minutes to answer. 

This will leave an accumulated time of ten minutes at the end of section 2 to review your answers. 

It is really easy to spend more time than you should, providing a fantastic answer to a question that you are confident about, but this could mean that you don’t have time to attempt all the other questions. 

Equally, if you find a question particularly tough, sometimes it is better to move on to the next question and come back to it rather than spend too long trying to answer it and risk missing other questions out. 

3. Mind Map:- 

What is Mind Map? 

A mind map is a visual representation of hierarchical information that includes a central idea surrounded by connected branches of associated topics. 

Use of Mind Map:- 

The answer plan is your memory aid and can take the form of a list, or a ‘mind map’ (simple diagram) that helps you unload information quickly and make sure you have enough factors (or things) in your answer that will attract the available marks. 

4. Command Words and Their Meanings:- 

Generally speaking, command words such as “Explain” and “Describe” require more detail than “Identify” or “Outline”. 

Identify - things, issues, and items. Normally a word or a short sentence will be enough, providing it is clear. 

Define - Provide a generally accepted definition. 

Describe - Write down detailed information about the main features of something. It should be factual and without trying to explain anything. 

Explain - Write down an understanding of an item or issue. This is checking that you know or understand something. This word often appears in questions as “Explain how…” or “Explain why….” 

Give - Provide without explanation. Outline - Write down the important, key points or issues. A long description is not required. What is needed is a short summary of the key / important points of what is asked for in the question.
