The Employer is effectively GUILTY until proven innocent. Can you demonstrate that all reasonable measures, to comply with Health and Safety Legislation, have been implemented?

EMPLOYERS MUST
1 - Care for the welfare and health and safety at work of its employees.
2 - Prepare and review a fully documented Health and Safety Policy, which must be brought to the attention of all staff.
3 - Encourage worker consultation through appointed representatives and committees.
4 - Regularly undertake risk assessments that will identify hazards, which if they cannot be eliminated, should be assessed to establish the degree of risk that the employee would be exposed to whilst at work.
5 - The Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 legally require an assessment of each computer user’s workstation in order to conduct a hazard/risk analysis.
6 - Employers are required to ensure that chairs are regularly checked and maintained.
