As an employer, you want to ensure that your employees can work in a healthy and comfortable environment. An important part of this is providing the right working conditions, including providing the right equipment and accessories. For employees who spend a lot of time in front of a monitor, wearing prescription screen glasses can help prevent eye strain and protect the health of their eyes.
But as an employer, how can you set up a good arrangement for prescription screen glasses?
To know which employees would benefit from prescription screen glasses, it is important to do a workplace research. This will give you insight into which employees spend a lot of time in front of a screen and whether they already wear prescription glasses.
According to the legislation, an employer must ensure that an eye examination is performed. If this examination shows that an employee needs screen glasses, the employer must reimburse them up to a reasonable amount.
Choose a reliable supplier that specialises in prescription screen glasses. Discuss with the supplier what options are available within the budget you want to reimburse (excluding VAT). At Seeh (Hans Anders Zakelijk), you can get high quality prescription screen glasses with no hidden costs.
Note, it is good to know that many employers reimburse the full amount of the glasses, as this falls under the Health and Safety legislation and good employment practice. In the Netherlands, it is mandatory for employers to provide a safe and healthy workplace for their employees. If it is established that screen glasses can help against the complaints, the employer is obliged to reimburse the costs of the screen glasses.
According to the legislation, as an employer, you are obliged to provide a safe and healthy working environment, which also includes protecting the eyes of employees who spend a lot of time in front of a screen. This means that employers are obliged to reimburse prescription screen glasses if this is necessary for the performance of the work. The exact guidelines can be found in the Health and Safety legislation.
Based on the workplace survey and the reimbursement you want to offer, you can draw up an arrangement for reimbursement of prescription screen glasses. Here, it is important to make clear who is eligible for the reimbursement and what the reimbursement entails. To control the cost of glasses and allow employees to choose the glasses that fit their specific needs and budget, you can also consider offering a customised solution. At Seeh, for example, we offer the option of choosing between an implementing arrangement and an amount arrangement.

Once you have established an arrangement for reimbursement of prescription screen glasses, it is important to communicate it clearly to your employees. They need to know how to apply for reimbursement and what the conditions are. Make sure that the arrangement is communicated in a clear way, for example via the intranet, a newsletter or an information meeting. In this way, all employees know how to purchase prescription screen glasses and what they can be reimbursed.
Monitor the results of the arrangement and adjust where necessary. For example, it is important to keep track of whether employees are satisfied with the compensation and whether it is sufficient for their needs. By monitoring the results of the arrangement, you can make adjustments where necessary to improve the arrangement.
