DSE Home Worker Assessments

We offer complete in-home assessments covering DSE, lone working, fire safety, electrical safety and employee wellbeing.

Home workstation review
DBS-checked assessors
Body-cam recorded

Your responsibility as an employer doesn't stop at the office door. Homeworkers face a wider set of risks — from poor workstations to lone working, fire and electrical safety. Our homeworker visit gives you confidence that your people are safe, comfortable and supported wherever they're working.

Every visit is delivered by a DBS-checked assessor wearing a body-mounted camera (with the employee's consent) for everyone's safety and peace of mind.

Deliverables

A single visit that covers far more than a standard DSE — giving you a complete picture of each homeworker's environment.

Full workstation review

Desk, chair, screen, lighting, posture and equipment — assessed in the real home setup.

Lone working & wellbeing

A private conversation covering isolation, check-ins, mental health and support routes.

Fire safety check

Visual review of detection, escape routes and any obvious risks within the working area.

Electrical safety review

Visual inspection of leads, sockets and extension use within the workstation environment.

Body-cam recorded

With consent. Protects both your employee and our assessor, and supports the report.

Detailed in-home report

A single, comprehensive report covering every domain and clear next actions.
