Specs2go
is pleased to offer special arrangements to companies who provide
employee benefits to their employees.
If you
have employees who wear single vision* prescription spectacles,
we can give you a direct link from your corporate intranet
to the Specs2go site, enabling your staff to purchase their glasses
direct from us. A mail order option is also available to employees
who do not have direct access to the internet.
Provision
of spectacles can represent both a benefit and allow you to comply
with current HSW legislation.
Please
email info@specs2go.co.uk
for more information.
Health
& Safety At Work Legislation
The
Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) Regulations 1992 attempts
to address the adverse health risks to VDU users and require that
companies comply as follows:
-
All VDU user workstations must meet the minimum requirements of
the Regulations and BS/EU Regulations ·
- All
VDU user workstations are assessed in order to reduce the risks
of eyestrain (see help/FAQ).
- The
user's work routine allows breaks or changes of activity ·
- Eye
tests and remedial spectacles are provided, where prescribed, for
users ·
- VDU
users are provided with adequate information and training on the
adverse health effects and how to avoid them.
* For
technical reasons, we can only supply single vision prescription spectacles
with lenses of a spherical power between +6.00 and - 6.00 (dioptres)
and a cylindrical power between +2.00 and -2.00 (dioptres).
