Update the Display Screen Equipment Regulations (1992)
The Government needs to update the Display Screen Equipment Regulations to be more in-line with modern life, working practices and technology.
The Regulations are almost thirty years old. In that time, technology has changed massively, but the Regs haven't.
We have internet access in all homes. We have hybrid and home working. We have laptops, tablets and mobile phones regularly in use for work. But workers using technology today are only protected by risk assessments based on a 30 year old law.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned that the Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 are out of date, but we're not sure exactly how you'd like these to be updated.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
