Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome
Vibration Assessments can be carried in accordance with the Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005 to assess the employees exposure to equipment that may cause Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS).
HAVS can arise from the use of handheld machines (such as grinders and hammer drills), hand-guided machinery (such as lawnmowers and plate compactors) and hand-fed machines (such as pedestal grinders and forge hammers).
A suitably tabulated manual will be provided for your records and will include recommendations following the readings taken.
