Health and safety self assessment


I've just had to complete a questionnaire on the state of my workstation, chair, display equipment and the like. Now given that we're a great big financial institution that's been around for centuries and likes to brag about how we're a 'high peformance' organisation and 'investors in people' and the like, it was somewhat surprising (alright, not surprising... more like resigned sigh/eye roll inducing) that the form looked like it had been put together by a five year old, then photocpied about 1500 times in an effort to make it even less legible.

Now this is a pretty simple tick box form. Not much can go wrong with that, you'd think. Except that there are more boxes than questions on at least two of the pages. At one point it asks me if I can use my PC without twisting my trunk. My trunk? What am I, an elephant? Bloody trunk.

Ok. Rant over. I'll go back to sleep, now!

get this, we have to do the same on an annual basis, and we work in a hot desking environment. Some of the smart (ass) members of my team have started to ask if they should really be filling one every day.

I kinda struggle with that before spouting some crap about it being the principle of the matter, and an annual check will improve their self awareness of WRULD.
