Your employees, your responsibilities

Your employees, your responsibilitiesAs an employer, it is your responsibility to maintain the welfare of your employees’ eyesight. Due to the significant number of hours spent on using computer screens and screen related work undertaken, the government introduced Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) regulations in 1992. This was done with a view to improve the working conditions of all employees who work with Visual Display Units (VDUs) and who require safety glasses.

For employees who regularly use VDU (computer) screens at work, your company is obligied to provide:

  • A complete eye examination conducted by a qualified Optometrist
  • Subsequent eye examinations at regular intervals as specified by the examining Optometrist, usually every 2 years
  • Basic VDU spectacles which could be single vision, bifocal or varifocal glasses if they are found necessary for VDU work

And/Or:

  • Basic safety glasses which could be single vision, bifocal or varifocal glasses if they were found necessary for the nature of work undertaken.

Additionally, we are able to advise individuals on how best to optimise visual performance specifically for the work they undertake.

Safety Spectacle

As an employer, it is particularly important that all the safety requirements of your employees are met rigorously.

Our entire range of safety spectacles carry the British Standards Kitemark as well as the BS EN166 and CE marks. This ensures a safer and better working environment for all staff, fulfilling your ethical and legal obligations as an employer.

For our safety spectacles, we provide a wide range of frames that can be fitted with single vision, bifocal or varifocal lenses. The lenses can be made from CR39 plastic, hard coated polycarbonate or from toughened glass. A variety of tints and coatings can also be added depending on personal preferences or requirements.

All orders, once established, are made from leading and recognised manufacturers of safety eyewear ensuring that necessary standards are met and that a proper safety certificate is issued at the time of completion.

Alternatively, if you already have an existing supplier of safety spectacles, following our eye examination, we are happy to order via your existing or chosen supplier and assist in the fitting of the spectacles once prepared.

In all cases, advice on the appropriate use and care of the safety spectacles and lenses is offered ensuring full protection guarantee is upheld.
