Mine sent us an assessment tool for home workstations. I was fine as we'd set what was then the spare bedroom up properly 20 years ago when Mrs B was doing her Masters. I'm using a midi tower and large screen with full size keyboard and mouse. Laptop keyboards will never pass a Display Screen (etc) Assessment and a supplementary keyboard and mouse should be, and in my outfit are, provided.
In case of RSI from days in the kitchen or balanced on the dressing table in a bedsit then an employer would almost certainly be liable.
