Risk assessment: the key step in the establishing of the workstation sheet

Adapting the workstation sheet

The workstation sheet remains valid as long as the risks of the workstation (or function) do not change.

Updating is necessary when tasks or functions are adapted (for example, an operator who must now collect pallets from the warehouse), work equipment changes (for example, new machines are used), legislation is changed (for example, health surveillance rules are changed), the work environment is no longer the same (for example, a worker is transferred from a quiet workplace to a noisy environment), etc.

A user undertaking must therefore regularly update the risk assessment of workstations in accordance with legislation on well-being at work. It is recommended to check if the versions of the workstation sheets available in the company still correspond to the reality of health risks.
